Property Oracle says ..
This five-bedroom semi-detached house located on Kent Drive, Oadby, is presented for sale at £340,000. The property benefits from a desirable location within Oadby, a suburb of Leicester known for its family-friendly environment and good schools. The nearby Gartree High School, rated as Outstanding by Ofsted, is a particular draw for families. The house itself offers spacious accommodation across two floors, including five bedrooms, a bathroom, a kitchen, and what appears to be a combined living and dining area. There is a small garden and a garage. The property’s condition presents a mixed picture. While structurally sound, the interior décor and the kitchen and bathroom in particular seem dated and in need of updating. This is reflected in the photographs, which show simple finishes and require some modernisation. Prospective buyers should factor the cost of renovations into their overall budget. The lack of specific information such as the square footage of the house and the plot size makes a comprehensive assessment of value challenging. However, comparing the list price to similar properties in the area suggests it is fairly priced given the size and location; but buyers should undertake careful due diligence. Oadby benefits from good transport links to Leicester. Therefore, this is a potentially attractive property for families looking for a spacious home in a well-regarded area but it does require modernisation. Buyers should be prepared to invest further funds in modernising the property.
Therefore, we give this property 6 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
