The property is a 1-bedroom apartment located on Rodney Avenue in Kingswood, Bristol. It is situated in the St George Central locality and has a postcode of BS15 1EF. The asking price is £180,000, and the property measures 430.13 square feet with a plot size of 490 square feet. Considering the provided images, the property appears to be in reasonable condition, although some updating or cosmetic improvements might enhance its appeal. The bathroom, in particular, shows its age and could benefit from modernization. The kitchen appears functional but also dated. The living areas are adequately sized for a one-bedroom apartment. There is no clear indication of significant structural issues or extensive repairs needed, but a fresh coat of paint and some minor updates could significantly improve the overall impression. The location benefits from proximity to several schools, including Bristol Brunel Academy (rated ‘Good’ by Ofsted) and Speedwell Nursery School (‘Outstanding’). Several train stations are within a reasonable commuting distance, offering access to Bristol city centre and beyond. However, the immediate surroundings are not explicitly detailed, so a more thorough assessment of local amenities and their quality is needed to form a complete judgment on the location score. The plot size is relatively small, typical of an apartment, and doesn’t include a substantial garden. The list price of £180,000 is significantly lower than the average house price in the area (£297,551). However, the average price per square foot is £392, and this property is smaller than average. While the price seems relatively low compared to average house prices, the lower square footage and the apartment type should be taken into consideration when assessing its value. Direct comparisons with similar properties in the area (nearby listings and properties) are needed to determine the reasonableness of the asking price. The absence of square footage data for nearby properties makes a direct comparison challenging. Based on the available data, the property seems reasonably priced for a one-bedroom apartment in this area, although the condition and lack of a large garden should be considered. The proximity to schools and transport links is a positive factor.

Therefore, we give this property 5 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
