Property Oracle says ..

The property is a two-bedroom, one-bathroom apartment listed at £280,000. It has a floor area of 779.31 sqft and is situated in the Pound Hill North & Forge Wood area of Crawley, West Sussex. The property appears to be in excellent condition, with modern fixtures and fittings as shown in the photographs. The kitchen and bathroom are contemporary and well-maintained. The living area is spacious and benefits from natural light. The bedrooms are also presented well. The location benefits from proximity to Gatwick Airport (2.04km) and several railway stations providing good transport links. There are also several well-regarded schools within a reasonable distance, including Forge Wood Primary School (Outstanding Ofsted rating) and The Gatwick School (Good Ofsted rating). This makes the property attractive to families and commuters. While the plot size is listed as 0.00 sqft, the photos show access to a communal outdoor space and a small balcony. This may not be considered a substantial garden, but does offer some outdoor amenity. Considering the average house price in the area is significantly higher (£429,541) and the average price per sqft is £352, the list price of £280,000 for this 779.31 sqft apartment seems reasonable, particularly given its modern condition and convenient location. However, the lack of private outdoor space might affect some buyers. The nearby comparable properties are mostly flats, with prices ranging from £260,000 to £275,000, supporting the listed price.

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