The list price of £695,000 for a block of apartments requires further investigation. The absence of square footage makes a direct comparison to local average price per square foot impossible. The other nearby listed properties vary significantly in price which may not be a like for like comparison. The price seems high relative to other properties in the area, and without more detailed information on the number of apartments, their sizes, and rental income, assessing the value for money is difficult.

Based on the provided photos, the property appears to be in good condition. The renovations seem recently completed and of good quality. The finishes are modern and well maintained. However, without a full survey, it’s hard to assess the underlying structure and any potential hidden issues. Therefore, a score of 8 reflects a good but not perfect condition, given the limitations of visual inspection only.

The property is located in Easington Village, County Durham. While not a major city center, the village benefits from proximity to good schools (Easington Academy, Rosemary Lane Nursery School, etc., all within a short distance) and relatively easy access to transportation (6.13 KM to Seaham train station). The village green setting adds to its appeal. However, the location’s relative remoteness might be a drawback for some buyers.

The listing mentions a ‘block of apartments’, suggesting limited private land. The photos do not show significant outdoor space associated with individual apartments. This warrants a low score as there is no evidence of a garden.
