Property Oracle says ..
This 2-bedroom detached bungalow in Glenfield, Leicester, is presented for sale by Newby & Co. The property appears relatively well-maintained based on the provided photographs, boasting a modern kitchen. The living areas feature traditional carpeting and neutral decor that requires some upgrading to current standards. The bathroom is neatly tiled and seems reasonably up-to-date. The exterior presents a neat, single-story brick construction with a sizeable garden. The property’s location in Glenfield is desirable, with proximity to Glenfield Primary School, a ‘Good’-rated school. However, a more thorough assessment of the property’s condition, including a proper square footage measurement, would be beneficial to inform a more complete valuation. The current asking price needs further review. The lack of plot size information and limited data on local average prices per sq ft for similar properties makes an accurate assessment of the value challenging. While comparables in the area suggest a fair price point, additional detail is needed to make a fully informed decision on its value. This could be improved by including updated floor plans to show the space distribution and accurately reflect the square footage of the property. The inclusion of the garage size would also be of benefit. The property’s key selling points are its location in Glenfield and the relatively updated kitchen. Potential buyers should be aware of the need for potential cosmetic improvements throughout.
Therefore, we give this property 6 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
