Property Oracle says ..
The property is a one-bedroom apartment located in Saffron Walden, Essex. The apartment is part of a development called The Maltings, situated on the High Street. The location is excellent, with good proximity to local amenities and schools. Saffron Walden is a desirable market town with a good range of shops, restaurants, and other services. Several highly-rated schools are within walking distance, making this location particularly appealing to families. The nearby train station provides convenient access to other parts of the region. Based on the photos, the apartment appears to be in good condition. The interior is clean and well-maintained, although the decor is somewhat dated. There is no apparent need for major renovations. The property does not have a private garden, but residents have access to communal gardens. The communal garden appears well-maintained, offering a pleasant outdoor space. Considering the average price per square foot in the area is £187, and the apartment is listed at £250,000 with 592.02 sqft, the price seems reasonable. The average price for properties in the area is significantly higher (£438,330), and comparable properties in The Maltings have recently sold for similar prices, or more. The apartment’s size and location justify the asking price. The lack of a private garden might slightly reduce its value compared to houses with gardens, but this is offset by the convenient location and access to communal green space.
Therefore, we give this property 7 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
