This 2-bedroom detached bungalow, without an onward chain, presents a unique opportunity for individuals seeking a property with potential.
Property Oracle says ..
The property is a 2 bedroom, 1 bathroom detached house located in Alveston, South Gloucestershire. The list price is £275,000. The property benefits from a garden, however, it appears to be somewhat overgrown and in need of attention. The house itself is in need of modernisation and updating. The carpets and decor are dated, and some areas show signs of wear and tear. The kitchen and bathroom are particularly tired and would benefit from a full refurbishment. While the location in Alveston is pleasant and relatively quiet, the proximity to good schools like St Helen’s Church of England Primary School (Outstanding Ofsted rating) and Marlwood School is a positive. However, transport links may be a consideration, with the nearest train stations being several kilometers away. Considering the average house price in the area is significantly higher (£641,416) and the average price per square foot is £349, the list price of £275,000 for this property appears to reflect its condition and the need for substantial renovation. The property’s relatively small size (702.35 sqft) compared to the area average (1,835 sqft) also contributes to the lower price point. However, the need for modernisation should be factored into any potential buyer’s calculations.
Therefore, we give this property 5 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
