Property Oracle says ..
This studio apartment on Montgomery Street, Hove, presents a mixed bag of advantages and disadvantages. The location within Westbourne, Hove is highly desirable. It is close to local amenities, transport links, and several well-regarded schools, making it an attractive area to live in, particularly for young professionals or students. The proximity to Aldrington train station provides easy access to Brighton and surrounding areas. However, the property itself is in need of considerable renovation. The photographs reveal damage to the ceilings and walls, alongside outdated fixtures and fittings. The kitchen and bathroom are particularly dated, requiring complete modernisation. Furthermore, the property does not feature any garden or outdoor space. The asking price of £170,000 should be considered against the substantial cost of refurbishment which is needed, alongside the lack of external space. While the location is a significant advantage, the condition of the property is a major drawback. A potential buyer would need to factor in a significant budget for renovations in order to enhance the property to a liveable condition. Overall, it is a property offering potential, but requiring significant investment.
Therefore, we give this property 4 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
