Allestree is a popular suburb of Derby, known for its good schools and family-friendly atmosphere. The property’s location on Scarsdale Avenue places it within easy reach of several highly-rated primary schools, including Lawn Primary School (Outstanding Ofsted rating) and Allestree Woodlands School. The University of Derby is also relatively close by, adding to the area’s appeal. Transportation links are good, with several train stations within a reasonable distance, providing access to Derby and beyond. This contributes to a positive location score.

The property appears to be in need of some modernisation and updating. The interior shows dated décor and some areas, such as the kitchen and hallway, exhibit wear and tear. While the bathroom appears to have been recently updated, the overall condition suggests that some renovation work would enhance the property’s appeal and value. The garden, while present, requires attention and landscaping to reach its full potential. This influences the condition and land scores.

Considering the list price of £275,000, the average house price in the area (£376,338) and average price per sqft (£377), the property’s price seems relatively reasonable, especially considering its need for modernisation. The smaller size (377.81 sqft) compared to the area average (997 sqft) and the need for renovation are factors that justify a lower price point. However, the presence of a garage and garden adds some value. Nearby comparable properties support this assessment, showing a range of prices, with some properties requiring less work commanding higher prices. The price per sqft is lower than the average for the area.

The property includes a garage and a garden, although the garden requires some landscaping. The presence of both these features adds to the property’s overall appeal.

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