The list price of £40,000 seems relatively reasonable compared to other similar properties in the area, especially considering the auction format and the need for cash buyers. The lack of sqft data for comparable properties makes a direct comparison of price per sqft difficult, which is factored into the score. However, prices of nearby properties range from £29,500 to £73,000 for flats/maisonettes, indicating that the list price is within a reasonable range. The size of the apartment (631.90 sqft) plays a role in the value assessment.

Based on the provided images, the apartment appears to be in reasonable condition. While it doesn’t look newly renovated or luxurious, the interior is generally clean, tidy and in a functional state. There is no apparent significant damage or disrepair, suggesting that the property is adequately maintained. The lime green walls might not appeal to all buyers, but is subjective and is not a significant factor on the condition rating. The carpets appear slightly worn in places which is a minor factor in the rating.

The property is located in Fawdon & West Gosforth, Newcastle upon Tyne, which is a generally desirable residential area. Proximity to schools like North Fawdon Primary School (rated ‘Good’ by Ofsted) and relatively easy access to transport links, although distances to the listed train stations are significant, contributes to a positive location score. However, the specific location within Cartington Court and the lack of detailed information about local amenities directly surrounding the building slightly reduce the score.

The listing explicitly states a plot size of 0.00 sqft, indicating that there is no garden or significant outdoor space associated with the property. This is typical for an apartment and significantly impacts the land score.
