The property is located on Cheriton High Street, Folkestone, Kent. The area benefits from being relatively close to several primary schools, including Harcourt Primary School (rated ‘Good’ by Ofsted) and Cheriton Primary School (also rated ‘Good’). Folkestone West train station is approximately 1.64km away, providing convenient access to transport links. While the immediate proximity of shops and other amenities isn’t explicitly detailed, its High Street location suggests reasonable access to local services. More information on the specific amenities and their distances would be needed for a more comprehensive location assessment.

Based on the provided images, the property appears to be in need of significant renovation. The interior shows dated decor, worn flooring, and some signs of damp or water damage. The garden also requires considerable attention. The overall condition suggests a substantial amount of work would be necessary to bring the property up to a modern standard.

The property includes a rear garden, albeit one that needs significant landscaping. The plot size is 794 sqft, which is relatively modest, but sufficient for a property of this type.

The list price is £200,000. Considering the average price in the area is £341,706 and the average price per sqft is £325, the asking price is significantly lower. However, the property’s condition needs to be factored in. The required renovation work will likely represent a considerable additional cost, potentially offsetting the lower initial purchase price. A detailed cost estimate for the necessary renovations would be essential for a complete assessment of the property’s value. The lack of sqft information for nearby properties prevents a more precise comparison of price per sqft. A direct comparison to similar properties in the same condition would be needed to determine if the price is reasonable.

Therefore, we give this property 4 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
