Property Oracle says ..
This property is a two bedroom apartment located in Colchester, Essex. The apartment is situated within a short distance of local amenities and transport links, including Colchester train station which provides links to London Liverpool Street. The property benefits from being close to several schools including North Primary School and Nursery (Good Ofsted rating) and The Sixth Form College Colchester (Good Ofsted rating). While the apartment itself is relatively small at 531 sqft, the images suggest it is in reasonable condition and benefits from a small balcony. The price of £170,000 appears reasonable when compared to other similar properties in the area, although the average price per sqft is higher than the area average. However, the lack of plot size should be considered.
Therefore, we give this property 5 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
