This two bedroomed self contained first floor flat is ideally situated for easy access to a range of local amenities. While the property would benefit from some modernisation, it offers generous living space including a kitchen/dining room, sitting room, two bedrooms and a bathroom. Externally ...
Property Oracle says ..
This two-bedroom terraced house in Taunton, Somerset, presents a mixed bag of opportunities and challenges. Located on Shakespeare Avenue in the Blackbrook & Holway area, it benefits from proximity to good schools and Taunton town centre. The nearby Holway Park Community Primary School is rated ‘Good’ by Ofsted, making it an attractive option for families. Public transport links are also relatively convenient with Taunton train station within a reasonable distance.
However, the property’s condition is a major factor. The interior requires extensive renovation. Walls show damage, the kitchen and bathroom are outdated, and the overall aesthetic is dated. Potential buyers should budget for significant refurbishment costs. The small garden, while present, is overgrown and needs attention.
The list price of £110,000 is competitive when considering nearby property prices on Shakespeare Avenue, ranging from £76,500 to £187,500. However, the necessary renovations mean that the true value for money depends heavily on the buyer’s budget and willingness to undertake a substantial refurbishment project. A thorough survey is essential before purchase.
Therefore, we give this property 5 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
