Property Oracle says ..
This two-bedroom, two-bathroom apartment located in Leicester’s Abbey area on Junior Street is listed at £124,000. The property is situated in a converted building, offering exposed brickwork, which creates a unique aesthetic. The apartment appears to be relatively spacious with two good sized bedrooms. The provided photographs reveal a functional and comfortable layout with an open-plan living area and a reasonably well-equipped kitchen. A small balcony offers a small outdoor space which may improve on the overall living standard. However, some interior improvements or upgrades might enhance the overall appeal and increase the value of the apartment. The property’s location in the city centre means it is close to transport, including Leicester train station at 1.63km, and amenities. Several nearby schools are within a reasonable distance, while De Montfort University is also in proximity. The lack of detailed information on the square footage and plot size, and the average sale prices of similar apartments in the area prevent a definitive conclusion on the value. The surrounding areas appear reasonably well-maintained and the location offers convenience for accessing a variety of local services. Overall, it presents a suitable option for first-time buyers, investors, or those seeking city-centre living in Leicester.
Therefore, we give this property 5 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
