Property Oracle says ..
This two-bedroom, one-bathroom apartment located on London Road, Benfleet, Essex, is listed at £165,000. The property is situated near good transport links, including Benfleet train station, offering convenient access to London. Several well-regarded schools are also within a short distance, making it potentially appealing to families.
The apartment itself appears to be in reasonable condition, though the photos suggest it might benefit from some modernization. The kitchen and bathroom seem functional but slightly dated. The absence of a garden or any significant outdoor space is a notable drawback. The location on London Road is convenient, but the immediate surroundings shown in the photos aren’t particularly attractive.
The price of £165,000 seems relatively competitive compared to other properties on London Road, but the lack of plot size and potential need for future updates should be considered. A more precise evaluation of value would require the average price per square foot for properties on London Road, which is not provided. Overall, this property presents a mixed bag. It offers a convenient location and reasonable price but lacks outdoor space and might need some updating.
Therefore, we give this property 5 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
