The list price of £400,000 seems somewhat high considering the required modernisation and the lack of information regarding the actual square footage. While neighbouring properties on Phoenix Way have sold for less, and average prices for nearby streets vary considerably, the property’s location within the Shoreham Academy catchment could justify a higher price. However, more information is needed to determine definitive value for money, hence the score.

Based on the provided photographs, the property appears to be in fair condition, but in need of modernisation and updating. The kitchen and bathrooms appear dated, and the décor throughout the house suggests significant refurbishment is required to bring it up to contemporary standards. Carpets appear worn and the overall aesthetic is dated.

The property is situated on Phoenix Way, Southwick, which benefits from being within the Shoreham Academy catchment area, a highly-rated secondary school. Proximity to shops and transport links (Southwick train station is 0.85km away) adds to its appeal. While Southwick Green is a nice area, the lack of detailed information on local amenities necessitates a score that acknowledges both the positives and the need for further investigation.

The property includes a garden of reasonable size, as evidenced by the photographs. While it’s not exceptionally large, it offers outdoor space, which is a desirable feature in the UK housing market. The presence of a shed adds to its practicality.
