The asking price of £165,000 seems relatively reasonable compared to other similar properties in Fairbairn Close and surrounding areas, particularly given the convenience of the location and the functional condition. However, there is a lack of sqft data making it hard to assess per sqft value. The average price in the area is difficult to gauge due to the mixed type and size of nearby properties; making a definitive value for money judgement hard to make.

Based on the provided images, the property appears to be in a reasonably good condition. While it is not newly renovated, the interior is clean, and there is no obvious sign of significant damage or disrepair. The kitchen and bathroom are functional but may require some modernisation to appeal to a wider market.

The property is situated in Purley, CR8, which benefits from good transport links to London via Purley and Reedham stations. The proximity to several well-regarded schools, including Beaumont Primary School (Outstanding Ofsted rating), adds to its family-friendly appeal. However, the immediate surroundings of the property itself might not offer the same vibrancy as a more central location in Purley.

The property has minimal land associated with it, which is typical for an apartment building. The surrounding communal green space offers some amenity, but it is not a substantial amount of private land.
