Semi detached dormer bungalow IN NEED OF A COMPREHENSIVE IMPROVEMENT PROGRAMME, occupying a pleasant position in the highly sought after and well regarded village.
Property Oracle says ..
This semi-detached dormer bungalow in Denstone, Staffordshire, offers a blend of desirable location and considerable renovation potential. Located on Marlpit Lane, the property benefits from its position in a sought-after village known for its good schools, including All Saints Cofe Academy and Denstone College, both within a short distance. The proximity to Uttoxeter, albeit approximately 7.58 km, offers better transportation options to those available in Denstone itself.
The property itself is a three-bedroom, one-bathroom bungalow. From the provided images, the property appears to be in need of a comprehensive refurbishment. The kitchen and bathrooms display dated fixtures and fittings, and the overall interior décor suggests significant modernisation is required. The exteriors appear reasonably well-maintained, though a more comprehensive inspection would be required to assess the structural soundness fully. The property includes a garden, however, the pictures show a relatively small garden that could benefit from landscaping. The property comes with a small garden, but its condition seems to reflect the overall state of the property, which needs some care and attention.
The listed price of £249,950 seems relatively competitive when compared to other properties listed in the immediate vicinity. However, determining precise value for money is hindered by the absence of precise square footage for comparable properties in the area and the major refurbishment needed. Potential buyers should be fully aware of the renovation costs before making an offer, but the location should provide good resale value after modernisation is complete.
Therefore, we give this property 5 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
