Property Oracle says ..
Location: The property is situated on Luton Road in Harpenden, a town known for its excellent schools and convenient access to transportation links. The proximity to Roundwood Primary School (rated ‘Good’ by Ofsted) and other highly-regarded schools is a significant advantage for families. Harpenden train station provides direct links to London, making the location attractive to commuters.
Condition: Based on the provided photographs, the property appears to be in very good condition. It has undergone a recent renovation or modernisation, with a newly fitted kitchen and updated bathrooms. The interior design is contemporary and well-maintained.
Land: The property includes a garden, which is visible in the provided photographs. While the exact size is not specified, it appears to be of a reasonable size for a property of this type in Harpenden.
Price: The list price of £985,000 is slightly above the average price of £882,222 for the area. However, considering the property’s apparent excellent condition, the modern kitchen and bathrooms, and its location in a desirable area near good schools and transport links, the price seems reasonable. The average price per square foot in the area is £576, and while the property’s square footage is slightly larger than average, the price per square foot is not excessively high compared to nearby comparable properties. The higher price point can be justified by the quality of the renovation and the prime location. Nearby properties on Luton Road have sold for prices in the range of £480,000 to £780,000, but these may not be directly comparable due to differences in size, condition, and features. The higher-priced nearby listings support the pricing of this property.
Therefore, we give this property 7 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
