Property Oracle says ..

The property is a 3-bedroom house with 1 bathroom listed at £280,000. The area has an average house price of £404,387 and an average price per square foot of £413. However, the square footage of the subject property is not provided, hindering a precise price-per-square-foot comparison. Nearby properties on Longfold have sold for prices ranging from £104,000 to £310,000, indicating some price variability on the street. Other nearby properties show a range of prices, suggesting that the £280,000 asking price is within the range of comparable properties but may be at the lower end, particularly considering the apparent good condition of the property. The property appears to be in excellent condition based on the provided photographs. The interior is modern, clean, and well-maintained. There is evidence of recent renovations or updates, suggesting minimal need for immediate repairs. The property includes a garden, which is a desirable feature in the UK housing market. The size of the garden is not specified, but the photos show a reasonably sized space. The location is in Mere Brow, Preston, a semi-rural area. The proximity to Tarleton Mere Brow Church of England Primary School (0.77km) is a positive attribute for families. Several other schools are within a reasonable distance, although the specific quality of these schools would require further investigation. The distance to train stations is moderate, suggesting a balance between rural living and access to transportation. The overall desirability of the location will depend on individual preferences, but the proximity to schools and transportation links is generally positive. Given the apparent good condition of the property, the inclusion of a garden, and the location’s proximity to amenities and schools, the list price of £280,000 appears reasonable, potentially representing good value compared to some higher-priced nearby properties, although the lack of square footage information makes a definitive conclusion difficult. Further information on the property’s size and any unique features would allow for a more precise assessment.

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