3 bedroom semi, laid out over 3 floors with ample parking and garage. Very close proximity to schools, shops and post office with Rainham just down the road!
Property Oracle says ..
This three-bedroom, two-bathroom property located on Forge Lane in Upchurch, Kent, presents a mixed bag of opportunities and challenges. The house’s location is a strong point, with Holywell Primary School practically on the doorstep, and the convenience of a nearby pub and local shop as noted in nearby property descriptions. Train stations are accessible, although they require a short drive. The village setting offers a peaceful environment. However, the property’s condition needs attention. The interior photographs reveal a need for some refurbishment and modernisation. The rooms are cluttered and require a thorough clean. The kitchen, while functional, has an outdated style. The garden is significantly overgrown. The lack of square footage information makes it difficult to accurately assess the price per square foot and compare it to similar properties. While some nearby properties have sold for higher prices, these may be larger or in better condition. The current list price of £425,000 may be slightly optimistic given the required renovations, although the location does add value. A thorough survey and professional valuation are recommended before making an offer.
Therefore, we give this property 5 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
