Property Oracle says ..
The property is a 2-bedroom, 1-bathroom detached house located on Hobson Road in Leicester, Leicestershire. The asking price is £290,000. The property benefits from being close to several primary schools, including Wolsey House Primary School (rated ‘Good’ by Ofsted) which is only 0.32km away. Leicester train station is also relatively close, at 3.28km. This suggests a reasonably convenient location for families and commuters. However, without knowing the specific quality of the local amenities and the character of the neighbourhood, a definitive location score cannot be given. Based on the provided images, the property appears to be in need of significant modernisation and renovation. The interior shows worn carpets, dated decor, and some areas of wall damage. The kitchen and bathroom, while functional, are also outdated. This suggests a low condition score. The property includes a garden, visible in the provided images. The garden appears to be of average size for a property of this type in the area, but more information on its size and features would be needed for a more precise assessment. The average house price in the area is £340,786, with an average price per square foot of £380. Given the property’s condition and the lack of square footage information, it is difficult to definitively assess the value for money. However, the asking price of £290,000 is below the average for the area, suggesting it might represent reasonable value, considering the required renovations. Further information on the property’s size would be necessary for a more accurate price assessment.
Therefore, we give this property 5 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
