Property Oracle says ..
This semi-detached bungalow in High Barnes, Sunderland, presents a potentially good investment opportunity. The location is a key strength, being close to well-regarded schools such as Sunningdale School and St Cuthbert’s Roman Catholic Voluntary Aided Primary School, both of which are rated as outstanding or good. The nearby Broadway Junior School is also rated as good. The property is also reasonably close to Sunderland city centre and the A19 providing relatively convenient access to other places.
The property itself is a two-bedroom bungalow with one bathroom. The included photographs suggest that the property is habitable and relatively well-maintained, although it appears to be slightly dated. The kitchen and bathroom could benefit from some modernization. The property also features a sun room.
The garden appears to be of a modest size. While the photographs provide some visual information on the property, more data on size (square footage), would be needed to make a definitive assessment of the overall value for money. The list price of £199,950 sits comfortably within the range of comparable properties in the area. However, the average prices of nearby streets vary considerably, suggesting it’s crucial to analyze the specific size and details of the property. Potential buyers would be wise to conduct a full survey and seek independent valuation to gain a clearer picture of the property’s value.
In summary, this property is a reasonable proposition for those seeking a family home in a good location with good schools nearby. Buyers should be prepared for potential minor renovation work and the garden requiring some maintenance.
Therefore, we give this property 6 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
