Property Oracle says ..

The property is located on Dorchester Road, Leicester, LE3, a semi-detached house with 3 bedrooms and 1 bathroom. The property is 786 sqft and sits on a 1,027 sqft plot. The list price is £300,000. The average property price in the area is significantly higher at £522,019, with an average size of 1,460 sqft and an average price per sqft of £357. Compared to this average, the subject property is considerably smaller and cheaper. Nearby properties on Dorchester Road show a range of prices, from £68,000 to £241,000, indicating significant price variation within the street itself. This variation suggests a possible need for further investigation into the specific factors influencing individual property values. The lack of sqft data for these comparable properties limits the accuracy of a direct price per sqft comparison. The property benefits from being close to several schools, including Dovelands Primary School (0.34km) and Fullhurst Community College (0.92km), both rated ‘Good’ by Ofsted. The proximity to these schools is a positive factor for families. Several railway stations are also within a reasonable distance, providing convenient access to public transportation. Based on the provided images, the property appears to be in generally good condition, although some minor cosmetic updates might enhance its overall appeal. The interior shows a mix of original features and some modern updates. The garden appears to be of reasonable size for a semi-detached property in this area. Considering the smaller size and lower price compared to the area average, and taking into account the condition and location, the list price of £300,000 could be considered reasonable, although further analysis of comparable properties with similar sqft would provide a more definitive assessment. The property’s proximity to good schools and transport links adds value.

Therefore, we give this property 7 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
