While the list price of £189,995 seems relatively reasonable for a one-bedroom apartment in Alton, considering comparable nearby properties which are significantly more expensive, the lack of plot size and the fact that this is within a retirement development might slightly lower its overall value compared to freehold properties. More precise square footage data for comparable properties would improve the accuracy of this assessment.

Based on the provided photos, the property appears to be in very good condition. The apartment looks modern, clean, and well-maintained with updated fixtures and finishes. There is no visible evidence of significant repairs or renovations needed.

Alton is a desirable market town in Hampshire with good transport links via the South Western Railway (0.82km from the property). The property is also within close proximity to several well-regarded schools (Alton Infant School, St Lawrence Church of England Primary School, etc.), making it attractive to families. The proximity to amenities is also a plus, though the specific distance to shops and other services is not detailed.

The property has minimal or no private outdoor space. The shared communal gardens are present, but the lack of a private garden or significant land area significantly impacts this score.
