Offered for sale with no onward chain and located on Walton High Street within close proximity of a parade of shops and amenities is this older style one bedroom semi detached cottage.

Property Oracle says ..

The property is a one-bedroom cottage located on the High Street in Western Felixstowe, East Suffolk. Its proximity to the High Street suggests convenient access to local shops and amenities. The presence of several schools within a reasonable distance (less than 2km) is a positive aspect for families or potential investors considering rental income. Felixstowe train station is also relatively close, offering good transport links. However, the provided data does not offer further details on the quality of local schools or the frequency of public transport. Based on the photographs, the property appears to be in generally fair condition. While it is habitable, some aspects, such as the kitchen and bathroom, show signs of age and could benefit from modernization. The overall condition is not poor but could be improved with some renovations. The property benefits from a small rear garden, which is always a desirable feature. The list price of £175,000 is significantly below the average price of £252,221 for the area. While the lack of square footage data prevents a precise price per square foot comparison, the lower list price might be justified by the property’s condition and relatively small size. However, comparable nearby properties are listed at higher prices, suggesting that the property may be undervalued, especially if it is in better condition than the photos suggest. Further investigation into the property’s specific features and condition would be necessary to determine the true market value.

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