The listed price of £500,000 for a four-bedroom detached property needs to be considered in the context of its condition and the lack of precise plot size. While comparable properties in the area lack comparable details, making a direct comparison difficult, the need for significant modernisation could impact its value. The relatively high price seems reasonable, though a refurbishment budget would need to be factored into any purchasing decision. The overall value is scored a 7.

Based on the provided images, the property appears to be in need of modernisation. The interior finishes, such as carpets, wallpaper, and kitchen units, seem dated. Whilst the structure appears sound, significant refurbishment would be needed to bring it up to contemporary standards. A score of 4 reflects this need for substantial updating.

The property is situated on Scalford Road in Melton Mowbray, which benefits from its proximity to local schools, including John Ferneley College (rated ‘Good’ by Ofsted) and several primary schools. The town centre, with its amenities and transportation links (Melton Mowbray train station is 1.32km away), is also within reasonable reach. While not directly in the heart of town, the location offers a good balance of convenience and quiet suburban living. This justifies a score of 7.

The property includes a sizable garden, as evidenced in the photographs. Although it appears to be somewhat overgrown, it offers considerable potential for landscaping and outdoor use. The overall size, however, is not provided, making the score less precise, but large enough to be given a score of 6.
