Property Oracle says ..
The property is a 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom flat located on Upper St Giles Street in Norwich, Norfolk. It is listed at £475,000 and has 751.43 sqft of living space and a 942 sqft plot. The location is excellent, being in the Mancroft area of Norwich city centre. This is a desirable area known for its proximity to Norwich Cathedral, shops, restaurants, and good transport links. The nearby Sir Isaac Newton Sixth Form Free School is rated ‘Outstanding’ by Ofsted, further enhancing the area’s appeal for families. Based on the images, the property appears to be in good condition. While it retains many period features, suggesting a traditional style, it also benefits from a modern kitchen and updated bathrooms. The property shows signs of careful maintenance and is presented well, with no obvious signs of disrepair needing renovation. The property has a small, manageable garden area. Considering the average price of a property in the area is £259,014, and the average price per sqft is £335, the list price of £475,000 seems high. While the property’s location and condition are strong selling points, the relatively small size (751.43 sqft) compared to the asking price suggests it is priced above the average. Nearby comparable properties on Upper St Giles Street have sold for significantly less, further supporting this assessment. However, the unique character and location of this specific property could justify a higher price point than average.
Therefore, we give this property 7 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
