Property Oracle says ..

The property is located in St Stephen’s, Canterbury, a location with nearby schools, including St Stephen’s Junior School (rated ‘Good’ by Ofsted) and The Archbishop’s School, and transportation links such as Canterbury West train station (1.46km away). The area also benefits from proximity to the University of Kent. However, the provided data does not give enough detail on the quality of local shops and places of significance to form a complete assessment of the location.

Based on the images, the property appears to be in need of significant renovation. The interior shows worn surfaces, outdated fixtures, and requires a complete redecoration. The exterior, while structurally sound, also shows signs of needing attention and updating. Therefore, the condition score reflects the extensive work needed to bring the property up to a modern standard.

The property includes a small garden area, although the images suggest it is currently unkempt and requires landscaping. The size is not specified, preventing a precise evaluation of the land.

Considering the list price of £120,000, the average house price in the area is significantly higher (£366,034), and the average price per square foot is £424. The lack of square footage information for this property prevents a direct comparison using the price per square foot metric. However, given the property’s condition and the need for extensive renovation, the list price may appear relatively reasonable compared to the average price in the area. Further, nearby comparable properties on Downs Road have sold for prices ranging from £87,950 to £285,000, suggesting that the list price is within a possible range, but a full valuation is needed to confirm.

Therefore, we give this property 5 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
