Property Oracle says ..
The property is a semi-detached house located on Tockholes Road in Darwen, Lancashire. It benefits from a large plot size of 1,925.40 sqft. The area has good schools nearby, including Darwen Aldridge Enterprise Studio, Avondale Primary School, and Holy Trinity Vc School, all with a ‘Good’ Ofsted rating. Darwen train station is also within a reasonable distance, providing convenient access to public transportation.
Based on the provided images, the property appears to be in good condition. The interior shows a blend of traditional and modern features, with updated kitchen and bathroom fixtures. The property seems well-maintained and does not appear to be in need of significant renovation. The presence of a fireplace adds character. The exterior shows a stone structure with a substantial garden area. The garden is tiered and has stone walls, creating distinct levels. There is a mix of mature and younger plants, indicating some level of garden maintenance. The overall impression is that the property is well-presented and offers a comfortable living space.
The list price of £290,000 is higher than the average price of £224,205 for the area. However, the significantly larger plot size of this property compared to the average in the area (1,925.40 sqft vs. 1,085 sqft) and its overall condition and features justify the higher price. The average price per sqft in the area is £206.00 and while the sqft for this property is not provided, the asking price is not unreasonable given the location, condition, and land size. Nearby comparable properties support this assessment, though a precise price per sqft comparison is not possible due to missing data.
Therefore, we give this property 7 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
