This property is a two-bedroom, two-bathroom apartment located in the Old Town area of Swindon. The apartment is situated within a modern apartment complex and benefits from allocated parking. While the apartment is conveniently located near schools, transportation links (Swindon train station is approximately 1.77km away), and local amenities, the images suggest that the property is in need of some modernisation and updating. The walls show some staining and the carpets appear worn. The kitchen and bathrooms, while functional, are dated. The lack of outdoor space is a significant drawback. Compared to other properties in the area, the list price of £145,000 appears to be in line with the market, considering the size and location, but the condition may require a degree of negotiation. The average price per sqft in the area is £348, and while this property is smaller than average, the price reflects this. However, the necessary renovations should be factored into any offer.
Therefore, we give this property 5 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
