A Great opportunity of a one bedroom apartment in a prime Maidstone location. The property is nicely situated on a popular road on the outskirts of the ever popular Maidstone Town making it very convenient for accessing a range of different shops, transport links and social amenities
Property Oracle says ..
This one-bedroom, one-bathroom property located on Doddington Court in Maidstone, Kent, offers a relatively compact living space of 600 square feet. The property’s location is convenient, with proximity to several highly rated schools and Maidstone Barracks train station. However, the available photos reveal a property that is, while habitable, in need of some modernization. The interior decor appears dated, particularly the carpeting. The kitchen and bathroom, though functional, seem to be in need of some updating to meet current standards. A significant drawback is the absence of any outdoor space or garden. The list price of £170,000 should be considered in relation to comparable properties in the immediate vicinity. Nearby properties show a wide range of prices, indicating that location within Maidstone is a key price driver. The property’s relatively small size and dated condition, coupled with the lack of outdoor space, are factors to weigh against its convenient location and transport links. Overall, it represents a potentially affordable entry point to the Maidstone housing market, suitable primarily for first-time buyers or investors willing to undertake some cosmetic improvements to maximize its value. Potential buyers should carefully weigh the pros and cons given its limited size and lack of outdoor space.
Therefore, we give this property 5 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
