This three-bedroom detached bungalow located on Hallsteads Close in Dove Holes, Derbyshire is presented to the market by Sutherland Reay. The property benefits from a convenient location close to Dove Holes Cofe Primary School, which is rated ‘Good’ by Ofsted, and a short distance from other primary and secondary schools, including one rated ‘Outstanding’ by Ofsted. Rail connections to Buxton and surrounding areas also add to the property’s appeal for commuters. However, the village itself appears to lack a great number of local amenities. This needs to be considered by prospective buyers.

The interior is dated in many areas and in need of modernisation. Although the photographs show that some areas have been recently updated, specifically the bathrooms, most rooms require updates. The carpets, for example, throughout the property appear worn and out of date. The kitchen’s units and appliances appear to be from a bygone era and would require significant updating. While the property shows signs of needing some work, it is generally clean and well kept and doesn’t appear to require any extensive structural repairs.

The exterior boasts a spacious and well maintained garden, offering a desirable outdoor space for leisure and relaxation. This is a significant benefit, particularly for those seeking a property in a quieter residential location.

The asking price of £395,000 needs to be evaluated against local market conditions and comparable properties to fully assess its value. Although the average price per square foot data is not available for the area, this is likely to be above the average for the local area. The limited number of comparable properties provided makes a direct price comparison difficult, although it appears reasonably competitive for a property of this size and features in this area. Overall, this property offers good potential for buyers willing to undertake some modernisation work. Buyers should be aware of Dove Holes’s relatively small and isolated nature, and the resulting limited local amenities. It’s essential to do thorough independent research to establish if the asking price accurately reflects its market value.

Therefore, we give this property 6 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
