The listed price of £180,000 seems reasonable compared to other nearby apartments, although direct price-per-square-foot comparisons are difficult due to the lack of square footage data for many comparable listings. Considering the property’s size, location, condition, and the absence of outdoor space, the price falls within a competitive range for the Colchester market. The price is slightly lower than some comparable apartments in the area, though not exceptionally so.

The property appears to be in generally good condition, with modern fixtures and fittings evident in the photos. However, minor cosmetic improvements and potential maintenance issues (such as the ceiling in one of the bathrooms shown in the pictures) suggest it’s not in perfect condition. The overall presentation is acceptable but not luxurious.

The property benefits from its proximity to Hythe train station (0.93km), providing convenient access to Colchester and beyond. The presence of well-regarded primary schools within a reasonable distance (e.g., Kendall Church of England Primary School, 0.58km) adds to its family-friendliness. While the immediate surroundings lack some amenities, Colchester town centre is within reach, offering a wide range of shops, services, and cultural attractions. The area also enjoys proximity to the River Colne, enhancing its appeal.

The property is an apartment, and therefore there is no garden or significant outdoor space associated with it. This significantly limits its appeal to those seeking a property with land.
