The list price of £600,000 is fairly reasonable, considering the location and the presence of a garden. Without local comparable sales data or price per sq ft information for Hutton itself, a definitive assessment of value is limited. However, given the property’s apparent age and need for some modernisation, the price reflects the premium for a family-friendly village location in Essex.

The property appears generally well-maintained from the photos, but some modernisation might be needed to enhance its appeal. The kitchen and bathroom seem functional but dated. The garden appears average, needing some tidying but presents well overall. The overall condition is adequate, but there’s certainly room for improvement.

Hutton is a desirable village in Essex, known for its good schools and relatively tranquil atmosphere. The proximity to several well-regarded primary schools (all rated ‘Good’ or ‘Outstanding’ by Ofsted) is a significant plus for families. Commuting links to London are also relatively accessible via Shenfield station, although this requires a short drive. While not in the heart of a major town, the village setting provides a balance between quiet living and access to amenities and transport.

The property has a garden, which is a plus in the UK market. However, it doesn’t appear exceptionally large. The plot size isn’t specified but based on photos the garden is of average size, not particularly large or small. The presence of a shed adds to the overall land use.
