The property is a 1-bedroom apartment located on West Street, Axminster, East Devon. The apartment is conveniently located close to Axminster train station (0.28km), providing easy access to rail travel. Several primary and secondary schools are within a reasonable distance, including Axe Valley Academy (0.90km), St Mary’s Catholic Primary School (1.10km), and Axminster Community Primary Academy (1.23km). The Ofsted ratings for these schools vary, with some rated ‘Good’ and others requiring improvement. Based on the provided images, the apartment appears to be in generally good condition, although some minor cosmetic updates might enhance its appeal. The kitchen and bathroom seem functional but could benefit from modernisation. The carpets show some signs of wear and tear. The property itself is a modern apartment building, and the interior is clean and well-maintained. There is no evidence of significant structural issues. The plot size is 509 sqft, which is relatively small and doesn’t include a private garden. This is typical for an apartment in this area. Considering the list price of £80,000, the average price for apartments in Axminster is significantly higher (£309,446), and the average price per sqft is £163. However, the provided nearby listings show a range of prices for apartments, with some significantly lower than the average. The smaller size and lack of a garden of this property justify the lower price point compared to the average. The price seems reasonable given the size, condition, and lack of outdoor space, relative to comparable properties in the area. The property is likely to appeal to first-time buyers or investors looking for an affordable option in a convenient location.
Therefore, we give this property 6 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
