The property is a 2-bedroom, 1-bathroom apartment in Thorne, Doncaster, South Yorkshire. It\’s part of Casson Court, a development specifically for those aged 55 and over. The apartment features 725 square feet of living space and benefits from communal gardens. The listing price is £85,000.

The location appears to be convenient, with nearby transportation options including Thorne South and Thorne North train stations within a reasonable distance. Several schools are also within proximity, including Thorne King Edward Primary School (rated Outstanding), although the specific distances and the quality of other schools require further investigation. The presence of communal gardens is a positive aspect, offering outdoor space for residents.

Based on the photos, the property seems to be in good condition. The interior is modern and well-maintained, with updated fixtures and fittings. The communal areas also appear clean and well-kept.

The plot size is listed as 0.00 sqft, indicating that the property does not have a private garden. However, access to the communal gardens mitigates this to some extent.

Considering the average house price in the area is significantly higher (£474,742) and the average price per square foot is £381, the listed price of £85,000 for this 725 sqft apartment appears to be quite reasonable, especially given that it is a shared ownership property. However, a direct comparison is difficult due to the lack of sqft data for comparable properties. Further investigation into the shared ownership aspect and the implications for long-term costs is recommended.

Therefore, we give this property 7 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
