Property Oracle says ..
This three-bedroom semi-detached house located on Folly Lane in Stroud’s Uplands area presents a mixed bag of opportunities and challenges. The property’s key strengths are its location within a desirable neighborhood, the presence of a good-sized garden, and the potential for capital appreciation. However, significant drawbacks include the obvious need for extensive renovation and modernisation throughout the house. The dated kitchen and bathroom, worn flooring, and some visible interior damage would require substantial investment to bring the property up to a contemporary standard.
The asking price of £270,000 reflects the desirability of the location and the fact that it is a three-bedroom property, but potential buyers should carefully factor in the costs of renovation. A detailed survey and potentially obtaining several competitive quotes from builders are highly recommended before making an offer. The location offers benefits such as proximity to well-regarded schools, making this an attractive prospect for families. However, buyers need to approach this opportunity as a renovation project with associated time and financial commitments. Overall, this property requires careful assessment by potential buyers with the expertise and budget for a significant refurbishment.
Therefore, we give this property 6 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
