Property Oracle says ..

This 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom property located in Highfield Court, Burghfield Common, is a retirement property marketed as a cottage-style home. The property’s location is convenient, with access to several ‘Good’ rated schools within a reasonable distance and train stations within a 4km radius, with the nearest being Mortimer. However, the immediate area lacks the extensive amenities of larger towns.

The property itself is in reasonable condition. It is habitable, but the images suggest that it could benefit from modernisation. The interior design appears dated. The kitchen and bathrooms are functional, but an upgrade would enhance their appeal and value. A small garden is included, providing some outdoor space but not extensive grounds.

Considering the list price of £249,000, the property appears to be reasonably priced in line with other retirement properties on the same development. However, without detailed square footage data for comparable sales, making a conclusive statement on the value for money remains limited. Overall, the property provides suitable accommodation for retirement living in a convenient location, but prospective buyers should factor in potential costs for refurbishment and modernisation.

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