The list price of £550,000 seems reasonable for a four-bedroom detached house in Staplecross, given comparable properties in the area and its proximity to amenities and transport links. However, the lack of precise square footage information for nearby properties makes a definitive price per square foot comparison challenging. The price sits within a reasonable range of nearby sales, indicating a competitive, yet potentially not overly advantageous, price. However, the condition, requiring some modernization, could slightly reduce this score.

The property appears to be in generally good condition based on the provided photographs. While some aspects appear dated, such as the bathrooms and some interior décor, there’s no visible evidence of significant disrepair. The kitchen appears to be relatively modern and well-maintained, suggesting a reasonable level of upkeep. However, potential buyers should be prepared for potential modernization costs, particularly concerning bathrooms, to fully update the property.

The property is situated in Staplecross, a village in East Sussex, which benefits from being relatively close to Robertsbridge and Battle, both with train stations providing links to London. The proximity to Staplecross Methodist Primary School, rated ‘Good’ by Ofsted, adds to its family-friendly appeal. While Staplecross itself might lack extensive amenities, its peaceful village setting is attractive to many buyers. The surrounding streets show a range of property values, suggesting a reasonably stable and potentially appreciating area.

The property features a garden that appears reasonably sized for the area based on images provided. While it’s not exceptionally large, it provides sufficient outdoor space for family use and adds considerable value compared to properties without gardens in the area.
