The property is a charming 1920s detached house located on Kilby Avenue in Birstall, Leicestershire. The house boasts three bedrooms and one bathroom, and benefits from a sizable rear garden, approximately 1,269 sqft. The listing mentions potential for extension, a garage, and describes it as a perfect family home in a sought-after location.

Based on the provided photographs, the property appears to be in good condition. While some aspects of the interior decor might be considered dated, the structure and fixtures seem well-maintained. The kitchen, in particular, shows signs of age, but is functional. There is no visible evidence of significant repairs or renovations needed.

The property’s location in Birstall, a suburb of Leicester, is advantageous. The proximity to several well-regarded primary schools, such as Riverside Community Primary School Birstall and Highcliffe Primary School, is a significant positive for families. Furthermore, the relatively close proximity to Leicester city centre, with its extensive amenities and transport links, adds to its appeal.

Considering the average house price in the area is £549,850 and the average price per sqft is £436, the listed price of £350,000 for this property seems remarkably low, especially considering its size and the presence of a substantial garden. However, the lack of sqft data for the property makes a definitive price per sqft comparison impossible. The lower price may be attributable to factors not explicitly detailed in the provided information, such as the need for some modernisation or updates. Other properties on Kilby Avenue have sold for between £187,000 and £240,000, suggesting that the listed price may still be slightly high, but not excessively so given the potential for extension and the desirable location.

Therefore, we give this property 8 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
