ANDERSON BRIGGS says ..

DETACHED DOUBLE GARAGE - Offered to the market with no onward chain is this three-bedroom semi-detached home, ideally located on Ratby's desired Whittington Drive, with a detached double garage and off-road parking.

Property Oracle says ..

The property is a 3-bedroom semi-detached house located in Ratby, Leicester. The location benefits from being relatively close to several schools, including Ratby Primary School (rated ‘Good’ by Ofsted) and Brookvale Groby Learning Campus (rated ‘Outstanding’). The proximity to these schools could be a significant advantage for families. The presence of a train station (Narborough, 9.98km away) provides access to public transport, although the distance may be a factor for some buyers. Based on the provided images, the property appears to be in reasonable condition. The interior shows some dated features, particularly in the kitchen and bathrooms, and could benefit from some modernisation. However, the structure appears sound, and there are no immediately obvious signs of significant disrepair. The exterior is well-maintained, with a garden and a detached garage. The property has a garden, which is a desirable feature for many buyers. The size of the garden appears to be modest, but sufficient for outdoor space. Considering the list price of £240,000, the average price of similar properties in the area (£361,632), and the average price per square foot (£254), this property appears to be priced competitively. The property’s smaller size (1,015.04 sqft) compared to the area average (1,422 sqft) and the need for potential modernisation may justify the lower price point. However, the competitive pricing, combined with the desirable features like the garden and proximity to schools, could make it attractive to buyers. The need for modernisation is a factor to consider, as this may impact the overall value perception for some buyers. The lack of information on the condition of nearby properties makes it difficult to make a more precise comparison.

Therefore, we give this property 7 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
