This two-bedroom flat located on Lumley Road in Horley, Surrey, is listed for £280,000. The property boasts a convenient location near Horley town centre, Horley train station, providing easy access to both local amenities and excellent transport links, including Gatwick Airport. The surrounding area includes several well-regarded schools, further enhancing its appeal.

The interior of the flat appears clean and well-maintained, presenting a comfortable living space. The photos showcase a modern kitchen with integrated appliances, and an open plan living area with hardwood floors, lending an up-to-date feel. While the bedrooms shown are furnished, they maintain a good spaciousness.

Although the property lacks a private garden, communal outside spaces are shown which seem well-kept. The lack of a private garden is a notable drawback given that the comparable properties have no data on available land. However, the property’s central location and proximity to amenities may counteract this consideration for potential buyers.

The property is being offered in a competitive market. The listing price is comparable to other two-bedroom flats in the immediate vicinity, despite lacking the full data for a thorough comparison. While this suggests the property is reasonably priced, more comprehensive information on similar sales would help ensure that this is a definite value for money.

Overall, the property appears to be a decent option for first-time buyers or investors looking for a conveniently located, reasonably maintained, flat in Horley. The absence of detailed information on the property’s leasehold specifics, building maintenance fees, and any potential future renovation costs are significant factors that should be considered further before committing to a purchase.

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