Property Oracle says ..
The property is a 2-bedroom apartment located in Hale Close, Ipswich, Suffolk. The apartment is listed at £150,000 and has a size of 558.65 sqft. The average price for properties in the area is £231,353, with an average price per sqft of £269. The property’s list price is significantly lower than the average for the area. Based on the provided images, the property appears to be in reasonable condition, although some minor updates or cosmetic improvements might enhance its appeal. The bathroom and kitchen appear functional but could benefit from some modernisation. The bedrooms show signs of wear and tear, suggesting the need for some level of maintenance or refurbishment. There is a small amount of communal garden space. The location is close to several schools, including Sprites Primary Academy and Gusford Community Primary School, though it’s important to note that Sprites Primary Academy is currently in special measures. The proximity to Ipswich train station is also a positive aspect, offering convenient access to public transportation. Given the lower-than-average price, the condition of the property, and its proximity to local amenities and transport links, the property may represent reasonable value for money, particularly for first-time buyers or investors seeking a property that requires some level of renovation or modernisation. However, the lack of plot size is a significant drawback.
Therefore, we give this property 5 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
