Property Oracle says ..
This 2-bedroom, 1-bathroom property located on Shakespeare Road in Colchester’s Prettygate area presents a compelling opportunity for potential buyers. The property shows promise as a family home, with its situation near several highly-rated primary schools being a major draw. The property’s condition is decent, with the provided photos showing a clean and generally well-maintained interior. However, a refresh of some rooms’ décor and furnishings could increase the property’s appeal and market value. A notable feature is the garden, which looks sizable enough for family use. While precise plot size isn’t specified, its apparent size adds to the property’s liveability. The asking price of £350,000 seems consistent with other properties in the neighbourhood, particularly those bungalows on nearby Keats Road that have recently been listed at the same price point. The lack of precise square footage data on comparable properties limits the scope for an entirely quantitative assessment of value. Overall, the property presents a decent family-oriented package with strong educational and lifestyle amenities nearby, albeit with scope for some interior improvement.
Therefore, we give this property 6 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
