Considering the property’s condition requiring modernisation, its location in a desirable area, and the average price of nearby properties on Poplar Drive (£200,000), the list price appears reasonably competitive. While not a bargain, it accounts for the need for renovations. The lack of square footage data for comparable properties makes a precise price-per-square-foot comparison impossible. However, the price aligns with the current market trends for properties in the area needing renovation.

The provided photographs reveal a property in need of significant modernisation. The interior decor and fixtures appear outdated and in need of refurbishment. While the structure appears sound, the overall condition is far from excellent, necessitating considerable investment to bring it up to a modern standard.

Penwortham is a desirable area in Preston, known for its good schools and proximity to amenities. The property’s location on Poplar Drive benefits from being close to highly-rated schools like Penwortham Girls’ High School and Cop Lane Church of England Primary School (both Outstanding Ofsted ratings). The proximity to Preston also provides good transport links. However, the specific location within Poplar Drive and lack of detailed information about immediate surroundings slightly reduces the score.

The property includes a garden, but the images suggest it is overgrown and in need of substantial landscaping. The overall size is not specified, but based on the photos, it does not appear to be exceptionally large. Therefore a moderate score is assigned.
