This property is a 3-bedroom semi-detached house located in Maple Croft Crescent, Wincobank, Sheffield, South Yorkshire. It has a list price of £160,000 and is 960.68 sqft with a plot size of 850.35 sqft.

The property is in need of modernisation and updating. The carpets are worn, the walls require repainting, and the kitchen and bathroom are dated and require significant work. The garden is overgrown and contains a significant amount of debris. There is a garage/shed at the rear of the property which is also in a poor state of repair. The property does benefit from having a garden and off street parking.

The location is reasonable. There are a number of schools nearby, including Wincobank Nursery and Infant School (rated ‘Good’ by Ofsted) and Hinde House 2-16 School (also rated ‘Good’). The property is also within a reasonable distance of several train stations, providing access to Sheffield and other areas.

Considering the condition of the property, the need for significant renovation, and the relatively small size of the plot, the list price of £160,000 may be slightly high. However, the average price of properties in the area is significantly higher, suggesting that the property could still represent good value for money for a buyer willing to undertake the necessary renovations. The average price per sqft in the area is £367, while this property is listed at approximately £166 per sqft. This is considerably lower than the average, but this must be considered in the context of the extensive renovation needed. Nearby comparable properties on Maple Croft Crescent have sold for between £53,500 and £129,000, with significant variation in size. This suggests some uncertainty in pricing in this immediate area.

Therefore, we give this property 4 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
