The property is located in Countesthorpe, Leicester, and is a 3-bedroom semi-detached house with 2 bathrooms. The property has a list price of £284,950 and is 1,420.84 sqft with a plot size of 1,302.43 sqft.
The average house price in the area is £483,067, significantly higher than the list price of this property. The average price per sqft is £402, while this property’s implied price per sqft is approximately £200. This suggests the list price may represent good value, especially considering the size of the plot.
Based on the provided images, the property appears to be in reasonable condition. While some areas show signs of age and could benefit from modernisation, there is no indication of significant structural issues or the need for extensive renovations. The bathrooms appear recently updated. The garden is relatively small but usable.
The location is within reasonable proximity to schools, including Greenfield Primary School (rated ‘Good’ by Ofsted) and is approximately 3.5km from South Wigston train station. The area appears to be residential and quiet.
Considering the factors above, the property presents a potentially good value proposition. The lower price point compared to the area average, reasonable condition, and the inclusion of a garden are positive aspects. However, potential buyers should factor in the cost of any desired modernisation.
Therefore, we give this property 7 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
