Property Oracle says ..
This property is a 2-bedroom detached bungalow situated on Hillcrest Avenue in Castleford, West Yorkshire. While the location benefits from relatively close proximity to several schools (Airedale Academy being the closest and rated as “Good” by Ofsted) and train stations (Pontefract Monkhill being the nearest), the property itself presents some challenges. The images reveal a property that appears to be in need of some modernisation and updating. The kitchen and bathroom, in particular, show their age. The garden is present, but appears somewhat unkempt. Considering the average house price in the area is significantly higher (around £539,000) and the average price per sqft is £421, the asking price of £240,000 for this 630 sqft bungalow seems relatively low, potentially reflecting the need for renovations. However, comparable properties in the area show a wider range of prices, making a definitive assessment of value challenging without more detailed information on the property’s condition and size.
Therefore, we give this property 6 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
