The property is located in Grange-over-Sands, Cumbria. Grange-over-Sands is a popular tourist destination known for its beautiful scenery and proximity to the Lake District National Park. The area benefits from good local amenities, including several well-regarded schools within a reasonable distance, such as Grange Cofe Primary School and Fell House School, both rated ‘Good’ by Ofsted. The nearby train station provides convenient access to other parts of the country. This contributes to a positive location score.

Based on the provided images, the property appears to be in generally good condition. While some minor updating or cosmetic work may be desirable, there are no immediately apparent signs of significant damage or disrepair. The property shows signs of age, but this is in keeping with its period features. The carpets appear worn and could benefit from replacement. The kitchen is dated but functional. The bathroom is clean and well maintained but could benefit from updating.

The property benefits from a substantial shared garden area with well-maintained landscaping, offering a pleasant outdoor space. The images reveal communal gardens with mature shrubs and trees, and a lawned area with a view. This contributes to a positive land score.

The list price of £170,000 is significantly below the average house price in the area (£479,323). However, the property is considerably smaller than the average (896 sqft compared to 1360 sqft) and is a flat rather than a house. While the average price per square foot in the area is £352, the lack of specific square footage information for comparable properties makes a precise price comparison difficult. The price may reflect the need for some modernisation. However, considering the location and the shared garden, the price could be considered reasonable.

Therefore, we give this property 7 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
