Yopa says ..
This spacious flat is superbly presented throughout and located right in the centre of Dorchester, just a stone's throw from the High Street. It benefits from a long lease, affordable service charges, and an allocated off-street parking space.
Property Oracle says ..
Dorchester is a popular market town in Dorset, with a rich history and a thriving community. The property is located on Durngate Street, which benefits from its proximity to Dorchester West train station (approximately 1km away), providing convenient access to rail travel. Several schools are within a reasonable distance, including St Mary’s Catholic First School (0.88km) and Sunninghill Preparatory School (0.33km). The town centre, with its shops and amenities, is also easily accessible. This contributes to a positive location score. The property itself appears to be in good condition based on the images provided. The interior is well-maintained and presented, with modern fixtures and fittings. There is no visible evidence of significant repairs or renovation needed. The kitchen and bathroom seem recently updated. The exterior is also well-maintained. The presence of a small garden area adds to the property’s appeal. While the plot size is relatively modest at 733 sqft, it still offers some outdoor space. The list price of £220,000 is slightly below the average price for the area (£292,563). Considering the property’s apparent good condition, convenient location, and the inclusion of a garden, the price appears reasonable, although further information on the property’s square footage would allow for a more precise assessment of value per square foot. Nearby comparable properties support this assessment, with prices ranging from £100,000 to £270,000, though sqft data is missing from these listings, making direct comparisons difficult. The property includes a pantry and a fireplace.
Therefore, we give this property 7 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
