The property is a 2-bedroom cottage located in Skelmanthorpe, West Yorkshire. The asking price is £139,000. The average house price in the area is significantly higher at £321,272, and the average price per square foot is £326. This cottage is considerably smaller than average at 719.03 sqft. The property benefits from being close to two schools rated ‘Good’ by Ofsted: St Aidan’s Church of England Academy and Skelmanthorpe Academy. The proximity to Denby Dale train station also adds to its convenience. Based on the provided images, the property is in need of significant renovation. The kitchen and bathrooms appear dated and require modernization. Walls show signs of damage and require repair. The overall condition of the property suggests a considerable amount of work is needed before it is habitable. The property includes a small garden area, which although small, does provide some outdoor space. However, the plot size is minimal. Considering the property’s condition, the relatively small size, and the need for extensive renovation, the asking price of £139,000 appears to be in line with the lower end of the market in this area, given the need for significant investment. However, the average price per sqft in the area is significantly higher than what this property offers, suggesting it may be priced competitively given its condition and the need for renovation. The lower than average prices of nearby properties support this.

Therefore, we give this property 4 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
