The property is a 3-bedroom semi-detached bungalow situated on Latimer Drive in New Longton, Preston. The asking price is £209,950.
The property benefits from being close to New Longton All Saints Cofe Primary School (0.30 KM), which has a good Ofsted rating. Several other schools with varying Ofsted ratings are within a 2km radius. The area also has good transport links, with Preston train station approximately 5.80 KM away.
Based on the provided images, the property appears to be in generally good condition, though some aspects suggest it could benefit from some modernisation. The décor is dated, and some updates to the kitchen and bathrooms might enhance the property’s appeal. The garden is a reasonable size and includes a greenhouse and shed, adding to the property’s overall value.
Considering the average price per square foot in the area is £617, and this property is listed at £209,950 for 1240 sqft, the price seems reasonable, though perhaps slightly on the higher side compared to some nearby comparable properties. However, the inclusion of a garage and garden could justify the slightly higher price point. More comparable properties with square footage data would allow for a more precise price analysis.
In summary, this property offers a good location, reasonable condition, and a decent-sized garden. The price is competitive within the local market, considering the features and amenities. A buyer should be prepared for some modernisation to fully update the property to modern standards. The property would be suitable for a family looking for a home in a convenient location with good schools nearby.
Therefore, we give this property 6 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
