Property Oracle says ..
The property is a maisonette located in Shirley, Southampton. It benefits from being close to local amenities and transport links, with Millbrook train station being less than a kilometre away. Foundry Lane Primary School is also very close by, which is rated ‘Good’ by Ofsted.
Based on the photos, the property appears to be in reasonable condition. While the exterior shows some minor signs of wear, such as some moss on the brickwork, the interior seems clean and well-maintained. The kitchen and bathroom are dated but functional. There is no obvious need for major repairs or renovations.
The property includes a small, manageable garden area, providing some outdoor space.
Considering the list price of £137,000, the average price in the area of £272,805, and the average price per square foot of £293, the property seems potentially undervalued, especially given its location and the presence of a garden. However, the lack of square footage information for this property and the comparable properties makes it difficult to definitively assess the value. Nearby comparable properties are also listed without square footage, making this comparison challenging. Further investigation into the property’s size would be needed to provide a more accurate assessment of its price in relation to the market.
Therefore, we give this property 7 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
