The property is a 3-bedroom terraced house located on Highfield Road in Longlands, Middlesbrough. The list price is £125,000. The property benefits from being close to several primary schools, all rated ‘Good’ by Ofsted, within a 1km radius. Public transportation links are also relatively close, with several train stations within a reasonable distance. Based on the provided images, the property appears to be in reasonable condition. While some cosmetic updates might enhance its appeal, there are no immediately apparent major structural issues or extensive renovations needed. However, the interior decor is dated and may require updating to meet modern tastes. The property includes a small rear garden with a shed and covered patio area. Considering the average house price in the area is £267,288 and the average price per sqft is £252, the list price of £125,000 for this 690 sqft property appears to be significantly below average. While the property’s condition and small garden might justify a lower price than the average, the substantial difference suggests it may represent good value for money, especially for a first-time buyer or investor looking for a property that requires some modernisation.

Therefore, we give this property 6 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
