Property Oracle says ..
This three-bedroom, one-bathroom detached house in Downs View Road, Swindon, presents a compelling opportunity for a buyer willing to undertake some modernisation. The property’s primary strength is its substantial garden offering a high degree of privacy and ample space, which is a rare find in many urban areas. The location in the Chiseldon And Lawn area is convenient to several well-regarded schools, adding to its family-friendly appeal. Its proximity to green spaces is an added bonus. However, the property’s interior decor and finishes appear dated and could benefit from a comprehensive update. The kitchen, in particular, showcases a style that may not appeal to all prospective buyers. Potential buyers should carefully factor in the costs of renovations when considering the property’s asking price. While the location and the significant garden contribute to a relatively strong value proposition, the condition and the need for significant modernisation should be thoughtfully evaluated. Overall, this property offers significant potential, but requires a realistic assessment of the necessary investment to modernise it to current standards. The lack of precise square footage data for this property and nearby comparisons prevents a more precise property valuation.
Therefore, we give this property 6 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
