Property Oracle says ..
This two-bedroom flat in Wigston, Leicestershire, is situated above a parade of shops on the Little Hill Estate. The property offers a convenient location, with easy access to local shops, amenities, and schools. The nearby schools include Wigston Menphys Nursery School (rated ‘Good’), Little Hill Primary School, Wigston Birkett House Community Special School (rated ‘Outstanding’), and Wigston Academy. The proximity to South Wigston train station provides a viable transportation link. The internal photographs reveal a property that is habitable but would benefit from some modernisation and refreshing of the décor to enhance its appeal. The two bedrooms are of a decent size, and the bathroom and kitchen are functional. The flat features a small balcony, offering a limited outdoor space. Although the property does benefit from an overall good location and acceptable internal space, the lack of substantial private land and the need for some improvements reduce its overall attractiveness for prospective buyers. At £120,000, the price reflects the condition and location, making it potentially a viable option for first-time buyers or investors seeking a property with the potential for additional capital growth. However, the property is not without its limitations, which must be taken into consideration, for example; the lack of a garden and the need for modernisation.
Therefore, we give this property 5 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
