The list price of £399,950 seems reasonably competitive given the apparent condition and location. A more precise price per square foot calculation would require more plot size details. While nearby listings do not provide sqft data, making accurate comparison challenging. However, considering the comparable properties in the area and the new-build condition, the price falls within a reasonable range.

The provided photographs showcase a property that appears to be in excellent condition. The finishes, fixtures, and fittings seem modern and high-quality, with a new-build or recently renovated feel. There is no visible evidence of significant wear and tear or repairs needed.

Marple is a desirable town in Greater Manchester, known for its attractive canal-side setting and good amenities. The proximity to a train station providing links to Manchester is a significant advantage. The presence of well-regarded schools nearby further enhances its appeal for families. However, the specific location of Marple Wharf, while seemingly peaceful, might be slightly less central than some other parts of the town, hence the score of 7 rather than a higher score.

The property includes a garden, but its size appears relatively small, as indicated by the images, suitable for a small family, but not expansive. The inclusion of a garden warrants a score above 1 but its limited size precludes a higher ranking.
