This three-bedroom semi-detached house in Castle Donington, Leicestershire, presents a mixed bag for potential buyers. Located on St Edwards Road, it benefits from its proximity to several amenities including good schools like St Edward’s Church of England Primary School and Castle Donington College, both rated as ‘Good’ by Ofsted. The area also offers reasonably convenient access to transport links to Long Eaton and East Midlands Parkway train stations.

The exterior of the property appears to be in a reasonable state of repair, typical of properties in the area. However, the interior photos reveal that modernisation is required. Carpets and decor are dated, and an update would significantly enhance the property’s appeal. The kitchen and bathroom also seem to require upgrading. While structurally sound, the overall condition could be greatly improved with some investment.

The property includes a small garden with a greenhouse, suggesting space for outdoor activities and potentially gardening. The garden, however, is not expansive.

The list price of £210,000 needs to be considered in the context of nearby property sales. While this price might be justified given the location and the size of the property (984.90 sqft), the condition will likely need to be factored into any purchase negotiations. The lack of information about the average price per square foot in the area prevents a conclusive determination on the value for money. A comparative market analysis is required to give an accurate assessment for the list price. The lack of Plot Size data does not assist in establishing the property’s value.

Therefore, we give this property 5 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
