Property Oracle says ..
Ambleside is a highly desirable location in the Lake District, known for its stunning scenery, proximity to outdoor activities, and charming village atmosphere. The property’s location near Ambleside Cofe Primary School (0.74km) is a significant positive for families. Windermere train station (8.25km) provides access to broader transport links. While the plot size is small, the images suggest a pleasant outlook.
The property appears well-maintained and presented. The interior is modern and updated, with a recently fitted bathroom and kitchen visible in the photographs. There is no evidence of significant repairs needed. The property benefits from a wood-burning stove, adding to its character and potential appeal.
The property lacks a substantial garden, which is a common feature in this area. The available outdoor space seems limited to a small patio area.
Considering the average price per square foot in the area (£265), the list price of £385,000 for a 1,116.86 sqft property seems relatively reasonable. However, the average price for properties in the area is significantly higher (£475,979), suggesting that this property may be priced competitively, particularly given its smaller size and lack of extensive outdoor space. The nearby listings show a wide range of prices, indicating a diverse market. The lack of plot size data for nearby properties makes a direct comparison difficult.
Therefore, we give this property 6 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
