The property located at Folkestone Avenue, Walney, Barrow-in-Furness, LA14 3BE is a 3-bedroom, 1-bathroom semi-detached house with a list price of £150,000. The property is situated in the Walney South locality of Barrow-in-Furness, Cumbria. The property benefits from being close to several primary schools which have received a “Good” Ofsted rating. St Columba’s School, South Walney Infant and Nursery School, and South Walney Junior School are all within a short distance, making this an attractive location for families. Train transportation links are also relatively close, with Barrow-in-Furness station approximately 2.94km away. Based on the provided images, the property appears to be in need of modernisation. The interior décor and fixtures are dated, and some minor repairs may be required. The garden is small, but there is a shed and garage present. Considering the average house price in the area is significantly higher (£722,736), and the average price per square foot is £402, the list price of £150,000 for this 818.06 sqft property seems relatively low. However, the need for modernisation should be factored into any valuation. Nearby comparable properties on Folkestone Avenue and surrounding streets range in price from £60,000 to £175,000, suggesting the list price is within the lower range of the market for similar properties in the area.
Therefore, we give this property 5 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
