Property Oracle says ..
The property is located on Livingstone Road in Gillingham, Kent. It’s a three-bedroom, one-bathroom house with a total area of 480 sqft and a plot size of 483.10 sqft. The property benefits from being close to several primary schools, all rated ‘Good’ by Ofsted, and is less than a kilometer from Gillingham train station, providing convenient access to Southeastern rail services.
The property appears to be in generally fair condition. While the interior shows some signs of wear and tear, and could benefit from some modernisation, it is habitable and doesn’t appear to require extensive repairs. The kitchen and bathroom, in particular, seem dated and could be updated to enhance the property’s value. The garden is present but appears overgrown and requires maintenance.
Considering similar properties in the area, listed between £245,000 and £300,000, the asking price of £270,000 seems reasonable, although not exceptionally good value. The lack of sqft data for comparable properties makes a precise price per sqft comparison difficult. However, given the property’s condition and the presence of a garden, the price reflects the current market trends in the Gillingham area.
Therefore, we give this property 6 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
