Property Oracle says ..

This property is a two-bedroom apartment located in Folkestone, Kent. The location is convenient, with Folkestone Central train station being less than a kilometer away. Several schools are also within a reasonable distance, including Earlscliffe, which has a good Ofsted rating.

The apartment itself appears to be in need of significant renovation. The provided images show unfinished walls, exposed wiring, and a general lack of upkeep. While the building from the exterior looks well maintained, the interior requires extensive work. The lack of information regarding the square footage and plot size makes it difficult to provide a definitive assessment of value.

Considering the average house price in the area is £257,796 and the average price per square foot is £293, the listed price of £220,000 may seem reasonable, depending on the actual size of the apartment. However, the extensive renovation needed significantly impacts the overall value. The nearby listings show a range of prices, suggesting some variability in the market, but the condition of this property needs to be factored in. More information regarding the size and specifics of the renovation required would provide a more accurate assessment.

Therefore, we give this property 4 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
