A stone fronted detached bungalow conveniently situated close to local amenities in the heart of Chickerell village.
Property Oracle says ..
This three-bedroom, two-bathroom bungalow in Chickerell, Dorset, presents a mixed bag. Its location is a definite asset, boasting convenient access to local amenities and schools. Chickerell Primary Academy is conveniently close by, and there are also train links nearby to Weymouth and Upwey. This makes it attractive to families. The exterior shows a well-maintained property. However, the interior photos reveal that a full renovation is required. Dated kitchen units, dated bathrooms, worn carpets and patterned flooring all indicate that a prospective buyer will be facing considerable costs after purchasing the property. While the house is structurally sound, significant updating is needed to bring it up to modern standards. The lack of substantial land is another consideration. While there is a small front garden, this is not extensive. The asking price of £475,000 needs to be considered in the context of both the location and needed modernization. Potential buyers should obtain a professional valuation and factor in a sizeable budget for renovation before making an offer.
Therefore, we give this property 5 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
