Andrew Granger says ..
A lovely two bedroom bungalow situated on the ever-popular Foxhunter Drive, just a short walk from the bustling Oadby Parade, with a wealth of shops, cafes and other amenities just a stone's throw away. Set back from the road behind a front garden and with a tandem driveway and garage to the side...
Property Oracle says ..
This two-bedroom semi-detached bungalow in Oadby, Leicester, presents a mixed bag. Its location on Foxhunter Drive offers easy access to the amenities of Oadby Parade and relatively good transport links to Leicester. The presence of a garden, though not massive, provides valuable outdoor space and the inclusion of a garage is also beneficial. Nearby schools include several with good Ofsted ratings, making this an attractive prospect for families.
However, the property’s condition is a factor to consider. While the structure seems sound, the interior requires modernisation. The dated decor and finishes in the kitchen and bathroom would need attention, representing potential costs for any buyer. The property’s age is also a factor. It is important to have a full survey done to ensure there are no underlying issues.
The lack of sqft data for the property and neighbouring properties makes precise price per sqft comparisons difficult. However, based on comparable local listings and the overall presentation, the list price appears to be in line with current market values in the area, taking into account the need for refurbishment. Prospective buyers should carefully weigh the property’s strengths (location, outdoor space) against the necessary costs of renovations before making an offer.
Therefore, we give this property 6 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
