This two-bedroom terraced cottage in Emsworth, Hampshire, presents a mixed bag for potential buyers. Located on Havant Road, it benefits from its proximity to Emsworth’s town centre and its convenient rail connection to surrounding areas. The nearby primary schools, including some with ‘Good’ Ofsted ratings, are a definite plus for families. However, the lack of information regarding secondary school options prevents a definitive conclusion on the suitability for families with older children.

The property itself shows evidence of some recent refurbishment, particularly in the kitchen and bathroom which appear relatively modern. The images suggest the rest of the house could benefit from some modernisation, though it is not in disrepair. The flooring and wall finishes in the living areas appear somewhat dated, and potential buyers should be prepared for some updates to enhance the overall aesthetic appeal.

The outdoor space is limited, consisting of a relatively small garden, including sheds. While functional, it is not a significant selling point. The list price of £265,000, given comparable property information and the state of repair, seems within a reasonable range for the Emsworth market. However, a detailed comparison is impossible without accurate square footage information for similar properties. Overall, this property could be a suitable first home or investment for those seeking an opportunity to modernise and add value. The desirable location in Emsworth is a key strength, but potential buyers should factor in the necessary cosmetic improvements and the relatively small garden size into their decision-making process.

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