Property Oracle says ..
This one bedroom flat is located on Hills Road, Cambridge, within the Queen Edith’s area. The property benefits from being close to local amenities and transport links, as well as several schools including The Perse School (0.48km). While the location is desirable, the property itself appears to be in need of some modernisation. The images reveal dated decor and fixtures, suggesting a need for refurbishment. The flat is relatively small at 581.04 sqft, and there is no mention of outdoor space. Considering the average price per sqft in the area is £871 and the average property price is significantly higher (£1,064,318), the listed price of £280,000 might seem reasonable for a small flat requiring modernisation, particularly given the high demand in Cambridge. However, it is important to note that comparable properties in the area are substantially more expensive, and this property does not include any external space. More information on the property’s condition and any potential issues would be needed to provide a more definitive assessment.
Therefore, we give this property 4 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
