Property Oracle says ..
The Old School House is a 7 bedroom, 5 bathroom detached property located on Mumbles Road in the Mayals area of Swansea. The property benefits from being close to several primary schools, including T? Dan Y Coed (0.89km), Mayals Primary School (1.70km), Y.G.G. Llwynderw (1.81km), St David’S Catholic Primary School (1.84km), and Grange Primary School (1.84km). Transportation links are also relatively close by, with Swansea and Gowerton train stations within approximately 6.75km and 7.28km respectively.
The property itself appears to be a period property, retaining many original features whilst also having undergone some modernisation. The stone exterior and arched doorways are characteristic of period architecture. The interior images show a mix of traditional and modern elements, with updated fixtures and fittings in some areas, but maintaining the character of the original building. The property is in good condition, with well-maintained interiors and what appears to be a recently updated kitchen.
The property has a substantial garden, which is a significant feature, offering privacy and outdoor space. The garden is well-maintained and landscaped, adding to the overall appeal of the property. The size of the plot is not specified, however, the images show a substantial and well-maintained garden area.
Considering the average price per square foot in the area is £289, and the average house price is £320,294, the list price of £939,000 for this property appears high. While the property is large (1365 sqft), its location, condition, and garden size would typically justify a higher price than the average, however, the asking price is considerably higher than comparable properties in the area. Nearby detached properties are selling for significantly less, suggesting the list price may be inflated. Further investigation into recent comparable sales in the immediate vicinity would be necessary to determine a more accurate valuation.
Therefore, we give this property 6 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
