This two-bedroom detached bungalow located on James Avenue in Lake, Sandown, Isle of Wight, is presented to the market at £280,000. The property is situated in a convenient location, with good proximity to local shops, transportation links (Lake train station approximately 0.46km away), and several well-regarded schools within a radius of under 2.2km. The coastal location adds to its appeal.

The bungalow benefits from a spacious rear garden and off-street parking. It also has a detached garage. Internally, the property displays features that are indicative of its age; however, there is a possibility for modernisation and improvement that will increase the overall market value of the property.

The images reveal dated interior décor and what appears to be a relatively small kitchen and bathroom. While the structure appears sound, a degree of refurbishment would be necessary to improve its aesthetics and market appeal. Potential buyers should be prepared for some level of renovation work.

Considering comparable sales in the area, the asking price seems reasonable given the location and garden size. Further information and a property viewing would confirm this fully, however, the age of the property would likely necessitate some level of refurbishment. Comparing the provided list price of nearby properties, a buyer will need to carefully review the property for any underlying issues and complete a full structural survey prior to purchasing. A full evaluation should be undertaken before any purchasing decisions. The missing information on square footage is an additional hinderance.

Therefore, we give this property 6 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
