West View is a DETACHED property situated on Main Road, Hirst Courtney, Selby, North Yorkshire. The property is listed at £35,000. The property is in need of significant renovation. The exterior shows considerable disrepair, with damaged brickwork, overgrown vegetation obscuring much of the structure, and broken windows. The images suggest significant damp and deterioration. The overall condition is poor, requiring substantial investment to bring it up to a habitable standard. This is reflected in the extremely low list price. The property appears to have a small plot of land, overgrown with vegetation. The size is not specified, however, the images suggest it is not extensive. Given the overgrown state, the potential for a garden is present, but significant work would be required to make it usable. Considering the property’s condition, the extremely low list price of £35,000 may seem attractive. However, the extensive renovations required will likely negate any initial perceived value. The average property price in the area is significantly higher (£316,897), and the average price per sqft (£336) is not applicable given the lack of sqft data for this property. The nearby properties are also significantly more expensive, suggesting that the list price for this property is exceptionally low, likely due to its condition. The low price may be attractive to investors or those willing to undertake a large renovation project. However, it is crucial to factor in the substantial costs associated with bringing the property to a habitable standard. The location is in a rural setting, with nearby transportation links and schools. The proximity to train stations in Hensall, Snaith, Selby, and Whitley Bridge provides access to wider transportation networks. Several schools with ‘Good’ or ‘Outstanding’ Ofsted ratings are within a reasonable distance. This aspect of the location could be considered positive.

Therefore, we give this property 3 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
