The list price of £480,000 appears somewhat high given the age of the property and the need for potential renovations. While comparable properties on Shephall Lane are listed at similar prices, the lack of definitive sqft data for those properties prevents a precise comparison. The presence of a large garden and the desirability of the location influence a higher price, but internal upgrades would likely be needed making the price reasonably competitive but not outstanding value.

The property appears to be generally well-maintained from the photos, though some cosmetic updates would likely enhance its appeal. The kitchen and bathroom appear dated, while the rest of the house shows average condition. There’s nothing structurally amiss, suggesting a solid but not exceptional condition.

The property is located in Shephall Lane, Stevenage, which benefits from proximity to several good schools (Roebuck Academy, The Valley School, St Margaret Clitherow Roman Catholic Primary School, all within a kilometer) and is relatively close to transport links. While the immediate vicinity’s average price per sqft isn’t provided, nearby streets like Broadhall Way show higher average prices, suggesting a desirable area. However, the lack of detailed information about local amenities beyond schools limits the score.

The property boasts a significant garden area, larger than what is typical for semi-detached homes in the UK. The presence of a stream and mature landscaping further enhance the land’s appeal, justifying a high score.
