Property Oracle says ..
This two-bedroom, two-bathroom property located on Merlin Way in Barton with Watcombe, Torquay, presents a viable option for potential buyers. The property’s proximity to several schools, including those with good Ofsted ratings, is a key advantage for families. The relatively close distance to Torquay’s train station and other transport links also adds to its convenience.
The property itself appears to be in reasonable condition, although some aspects, such as the kitchen and bathrooms, could benefit from modernisation. The inclusion of a garden is a positive, offering outdoor space. However, the exact plot size is unclear.
The list price of £215,000 seems to fall within the range of comparable properties in the area, making it a competitively priced option. However, the lack of detailed information on nearby comparable properties, and the absence of precise square footage data for those properties, makes a definitive assessment of value difficult. Potential buyers should conduct thorough research and consider the property’s condition and potential renovation costs before making an offer.
Therefore, we give this property 6 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
