The property is a 2-bedroom flat located at 65 Saughton Road, Edinburgh, EH11 3LT. It is listed at £140,000 and has a size of 745.94 sqft. The property benefits from a garden. The property requires a significant amount of renovation work. The walls show signs of damage and damp, the flooring is worn and damaged in places, and the kitchen and bathroom appear dated and in need of updating. This is reflected in the overall condition of the property. The location is reasonably convenient with several train stations within a reasonable distance, offering good transport links. However, the immediate vicinity information is limited, so a definitive assessment of the location’s desirability is difficult. The list price of £140,000 is lower than the average price of £200,718 for the area, however, the average price per sqft is £277 and this property is £189 per sqft. Considering the property’s condition and the need for extensive renovations, the price may be considered reasonable, although potential buyers should factor in the cost of renovations. The nearby comparable properties are also priced similarly, supporting the listed price to an extent. Considering the need for renovation, the property’s condition score is relatively low. The presence of a garden is a positive aspect, contributing to a higher land score. The location score is moderate, given the proximity to transport links, but further information is needed for a more comprehensive assessment. The price score is moderate, considering the lower than average price for the area, but the need for renovations must be considered.

Therefore, we give this property 5 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
