Property Oracle says ..
This property is located in Sonning, Berkshire, a desirable area known for its charming village atmosphere and proximity to both Reading and the countryside. The nearby schools are a plus for families, and the train stations offer easy access to London and other parts of the country. The property itself is a three-bedroom house with a garden, which is a valuable asset. However, the images suggest that the property is in need of some modernisation and updating. The kitchen and bathroom appear dated, and the overall condition could be improved. The list price of £500,000 is significantly below the average house price in the area (£968,750), but this is likely due to the property’s condition and smaller size (698 sqft compared to the average 1548 sqft). While the price may seem attractive initially, potential buyers should factor in the cost of renovations and modernisation.
Therefore, we give this property 7 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
