The list price of £185,000 for an 853 sq ft, two-bedroom apartment is in line with prices of similar properties in the area. While precise price per sqft data is missing for Penton Way, comparable nearby listings on Penton Way support this conclusion. The absence of a garden and the limited plot size are factored in, leading to a price score of ⁷⁄₁₀. This considers it a reasonable price for the type of property and its features given the condition.

Based on the photographs, the property appears to be in good condition. The rooms are well-presented, with modern finishes and fixtures. Although the images don’t show extensive detail, there is no apparent evidence of significant repairs or renovation needs. Whilst the decor is neutral this can also be interpreted as not showing its best, resulting in a score of ⁷⁄₁₀

The property is located in Popley, Basingstoke, which benefits from proximity to good schools such as St Bede’s Catholic Primary School (rated ‘Good’ by Ofsted) and Marnel Community Infant School (‘Outstanding’). The area is also relatively close to Basingstoke town centre and its amenities, and has reasonable transport links to Basingstoke railway station. However, Popley is a suburb and may not offer the same vibrancy or extensive amenities as the town centre itself. The provided distance to the train station of 2.34km is walkable in good weather, but may not suit everyone. This results in a ⁷⁄₁₀ score, reflecting the balance of positives and limitations.

The property has no garden or significant outdoor space, which is common for apartments. This is a considerable limitation and results in a ¹⁄₁₀ score.
