The property is a 2 bedroom, 1 bathroom terraced house located on The Bayle in Folkestone, Kent. It is listed at £275,000 and has a floor area of 484.27 sqft. The plot size is not specified.
The location is excellent, being close to Folkestone Central train station (1.55km) and several highly-rated primary schools, including St Eanswythe’s Church of England Primary School (Outstanding Ofsted rating, 0.10km away). The proximity to amenities and transport links makes this a desirable area.
Based on the provided images, the property appears to be in generally good condition, though some minor cosmetic updates might be beneficial. The kitchen and bathroom show signs of recent modernisation, while other areas exhibit a more lived-in aesthetic. There is evidence of some minor repairs needed, such as patching the ceiling in the kitchen. The property has character and charm.
The property benefits from a garden, which is a significant advantage in a town centre location. The garden appears well-maintained and offers a degree of privacy.
Considering the average house price in the area (£257,796) and the average price per sqft (£293), the listed price of £275,000 for this 484.27 sqft property seems slightly above average, but not unreasonable given its location and the presence of a garden. The lack of plot size information in the listing makes a definitive price assessment challenging. The nearby comparable properties also show a range of prices, further indicating that the listing price is within the acceptable range for this location and property type.
Therefore, we give this property 7 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
