This property is a 3-bedroom, 1-bathroom semi-detached house located in Borrowdale Close, Tamerton Foliot, Plymouth, Devon. The list price is £285,000. The property has a plot size of 0 sqft, and the internal size is 650 sqft.

The property appears to be in good condition based on the provided images. The interior is well-maintained and recently decorated, with modern fixtures and fittings in the kitchen and bathrooms. There is no visible evidence of significant repairs or renovations needed. The external areas are also well-kept, with a paved patio and a relatively small garden.

The location is reasonably good. It is within a short distance of several well-regarded primary schools, such as Woodlands School and Whitleigh Community Primary School, both rated ‘Good’ by Ofsted. Several railway stations are within approximately 5km, providing access to Plymouth and beyond. While the specific amenities of the immediate area are not detailed, the property is situated in a residential area, suggesting access to local shops and services.

Considering the average price of similar properties in the area is £250,969, and the average price per sqft is £260, this property’s list price of £285,000 seems slightly above average, but not unreasonable. The slightly higher price may be justified by the property’s good condition and the inclusion of a small garden, which is a desirable feature in the UK property market. However, the lack of plot size data in the listing makes it difficult to provide a fully comprehensive assessment of the value. The availability of nearby similar properties at a range of prices also suggests some negotiation might be possible.

Therefore, we give this property 6 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
