The listing price of £100,000 for a one-bedroom apartment in Maidenhead, considering its proximity to the town centre and transport links, seems reasonably priced in the context of similar properties in the area for older buyers. However, the required modernisation works need to be factored into the overall assessment. This means that while the initial price may seem attractive, the renovation costs might reduce its value for money for those not wanting to undertake significant works.

Based on the provided photographs, the property’s interior appears dated and requires modernisation. The carpets show significant wear, and the kitchen and bathroom fixtures look outdated. While the building’s exterior seems well-maintained, the interior condition necessitates renovation or refurbishment, impacting the overall condition score.

The property benefits from a convenient location near Maidenhead town centre and mainline train station, providing easy access to commuting routes and amenities. The proximity to several schools, including Desborough College (rated ‘Good’ by Ofsted), further enhances its appeal to families or those seeking convenient access to educational facilities. The presence of communal gardens adds to the overall desirability of the location.

While the property itself has a small plot size (0 sqft), it is part of a development with extensive communal gardens. This access to green space adds to the property’s value and accounts for the moderate land score. The lack of a private garden impacts the score but the communal gardens compensate to some degree.
