Property Oracle says ..

This three-bedroom detached house in Wivenhoe, Essex is listed at £290,000. The property’s location is a key selling point. Wivenhoe offers a blend of town amenities and a tranquil riverside setting. Its proximity to Essex University and the train station adds to its appeal for students, commuters, and families. Good local schools are nearby. The property itself is a three-bedroom detached house, suitable for a family. However, the interior photographs reveal that the property requires some updating and modernising. The kitchen and bathroom look dated, and generally the style is quite outdated. While the house appears structurally sound, prospective buyers should budget for renovations and modernisations to bring the property up to current standards. The outdoor space seems modest based on the provided images. The lack of square footage information prevents a precise assessment of value per square foot, making a definitive statement on whether it’s a great value challenging. Nevertheless, considering comparable properties in the area, the price of £290,000 seems reasonable. It may be a good opportunity for buyers looking for a property in a desirable location willing to take on a refurbishment project. The absence of plot size and square footage data significantly limits a fully comprehensive assessment of the property’s overall value.

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