The property is a 3-bedroom bungalow located in Dunsmore Close, Maltby, Stockton-on-Tees. The list price is £240,000, and the property has 1,330 sqft of living space. The property benefits from a good location, with several schools within a reasonable distance, including Westlands Academy (rated ‘Good’ by Ofsted) and several other well-regarded primary schools. The area also has good transport links, with several train stations within a 5-8km radius. Based on the provided images, the property appears to be in need of some modernisation and updating. The kitchen and bathrooms show their age, and some cosmetic work is needed throughout. There is evidence of some damp or water damage in the attic. The property has a garden and a garage. Considering the average house price in the area is £284,705 and the average price per sqft is £248, the list price of £240,000 for this 1,330 sqft property seems reasonable, especially considering its condition and the need for modernisation. However, the lack of plot size information makes a complete assessment of land value difficult. The nearby comparable properties show a range of prices, some significantly higher, and others considerably lower. This suggests that the price is within the range of the local market, although a full valuation would be needed to confirm this. The property is a traditional style bungalow that could benefit from renovations to bring it up to modern standards.

Therefore, we give this property 5 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
