The list price of £290,000 seems relatively reasonable given the location (proximity to the university), the number of bedrooms (5), and its apparent suitability for either residential use or rental income, especially considering the nearby comparable listings, several of which are also investment properties. However, the lack of information regarding square footage and the apparent need for minor renovations prevents a higher rating.

Based on the provided photos, the property appears to be in generally fair condition, but not exceptional. The rooms show some signs of wear and tear and the overall presentation is relatively basic, suggesting some minor upgrades and cosmetic improvements could enhance the value. While the property is seemingly habitable and structurally sound, it lacks a sense of luxury or high-end finishes.

The property is located on Borough Road in Middlesbrough, which benefits from its proximity to Teesside University (0.5km) and is within walking distance of the town centre. This makes it attractive for students and young professionals, increasing rental potential. However, Middlesbrough itself has some areas of deprivation and may not be considered a highly desirable location by all buyers. The street itself shows some mixed property use, suggesting a potentially less homogenous or upscale residential environment.

The property appears to be a terraced house with no significant garden space visible in the provided images, limiting its outdoor amenity. The lack of land is a factor influencing the score.
