Property Oracle says ..

This 2-bedroom property located on Buckland Hill in Maidstone, Kent, presents a mixed bag of opportunities and challenges. The property’s strongest suit is undoubtedly its location. Within close proximity to well-regarded schools, including the outstanding Maidstone Grammar School for Girls, and conveniently situated near several train stations, the location offers potential for families and commuters alike. However, the interior condition requires significant refurbishment. The photographs reveal dated fittings, flooring and wall finishes, necessitating a considerable investment in modernization. While the photos show an area of outside space, it’s limited and doesn’t constitute a garden in any real sense. The listed price of £170,000 appears reasonably competitive when considering the need for renovation and comparing it to other properties in the area, although a lack of precise square footage data on comparable properties prevents a definitive conclusion. A buyer should budget for significant renovation costs to bring the property up to a desirable standard. Therefore, this property would best suit a buyer looking for a project property in a convenient location with the vision and resources for a complete refurbishment.

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