This property is a 1-bedroom, 1-bathroom flat located in Sketty, Swansea. The flat is part of a modern development, as evidenced by the provided images. The property has a small amount of outdoor space, in the form of a patio area. The location in Sketty is generally considered desirable, being relatively close to local amenities and schools. The proximity to Swansea city centre and transport links also adds to the appeal. However, the lack of specific details on the quality of nearby schools and the precise distance to shops and other amenities prevents a more definitive assessment of the location score. Based on the images, the property appears to be in excellent condition. It is modern, clean, and well-maintained. There is no visible evidence of wear or damage. The kitchen and bathroom appear new or recently renovated. The plot size is listed as 0.00 sqft. While the property includes a patio area, it does not appear to have a significant garden. This limits the land score. The list price of £250,000 is slightly below the average price for the area (£320,294). However, the average price per square foot in the area is £289, while this property is listed at approximately £457 per sqft (£250,000 / 547.78 sqft). This suggests that the price per sqft is significantly higher than the average for the area, and may not represent great value, especially considering that the property is a flat with a small plot size. Nearby comparable properties offer some context but lack sufficient data (sqft) to make a precise comparison.
Therefore, we give this property 6 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
