Property Oracle says ..
This three-bedroom property in Wilwyne Close, Caversham, Reading, is presented for sale at £700,000. The property’s exterior is well-maintained, exhibiting a typical style for its area, with a sizeable garden space, which includes a greenhouse. Internally, however, the property is distinctly dated, featuring 1970s or 1980s-style fixtures, fittings and décor throughout. The kitchen and bathroom are particularly in need of modernization and updating. The carpets and interior wall coverings also appear dated. While the layout may be functional, prospective buyers should budget for substantial renovation work to bring the property up to modern standards. The property’s location in Caversham offers a blend of suburban tranquility and convenient proximity to Reading town centre and its amenities, including excellent transport links via Reading’s main railway station. The presence of several well-regarded primary schools nearby boosts its family appeal. However, the price of £700,000 may present challenges, given the necessary refurbishment work. A thorough survey is highly recommended for potential purchasers. Overall, this property is a considerable project that would benefit from a complete overhaul. The high asking price reflects its location, but potential buyers must weigh this against the substantial renovation costs involved to reach a final decision.
Therefore, we give this property 6 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
