Wards says ..

Located within the outskirts of Maidstone town within the semi rural setting of Barming. This spacious ground floor apartment is ideally located and provided easy access to local amenities. This property is offered to the market chain free.

Property Oracle says ..

The property is located in Maidstone, Kent, a town with good transport links and amenities. The nearby Jubilee Primary School and Bower Grove School both have outstanding Ofsted ratings, making this an attractive location for families. The property itself is a 2-bedroom apartment with 1 bathroom, and a total area of 525 sqft. Based on the photos, the property appears to be in need of some modernisation. The carpets and decor are dated, and an update would likely enhance its appeal. The kitchen and bathroom also show their age and could benefit from refurbishment. The property has access to communal green space, though the plot size is listed as 0.00 sqft. Considering the average price per sqft in the area is £336, and the property is listed at £175,000, the price seems relatively reasonable, especially given its condition. However, the lack of private outdoor space might impact its overall value compared to other properties in the area. The property’s location near good schools and transport links is a significant positive.

Therefore, we give this property 6 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
