Property Oracle says ..
This two-bedroom apartment in Dover, Kent, is listed for £170,000. Located on Folkestone Road, it offers convenient access to Dover Priory station, which provides links to London via fast train services. Several primary and secondary schools are within walking distance, including some with “Good” Ofsted ratings, making it an attractive option for families. The interior is presented in a clean and tidy condition, with updated areas such as a recently renovated bathroom, and a functional, recently modernised kitchen. The property also benefits from the inclusion of a garage, providing off-street parking. However, there appears to be minimal or no garden space, which could be a limitation for some buyers. The property’s location on Folkestone Road and relative proximity to transportation and schools, coupled with its reasonably sized interior are positive attributes. However, the lack of information about the immediate surroundings, combined with the limited land and the fact that certain rooms may benefit from modernisation, suggests a property requiring further consideration prior to purchase. Overall, the property presents itself as a viable option for first-time buyers or investors seeking a reasonably priced two-bedroom apartment in a convenient location with the benefit of off-street parking. Further investigation into the specific condition of the property and the local area’s reputation would be recommended before making a final decision.
Therefore, we give this property 5 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
