Property Oracle says ..
This three-bedroom detached house on Barbel Road, Colchester, presents a mixed bag for potential buyers. The property is situated in Greenstead, a location with nearby good schools and reasonable transport links to Colchester city centre, and offers a good level of family accommodation. The garden, though needing maintenance, adds value. The presence of a shed and greenhouse is a plus.
However, the property is in need of some modernisation. The photos show dated interiors, carpets and kitchen/bathroom fittings. Potential buyers should factor in renovation costs. Additionally, a precise evaluation of price per square foot is impossible due to the missing plot size data. While the £350,000 asking price is not unreasonable for a three-bedroom detached house in the area, it’s not exceptionally good value given the required renovation work. Overall, it requires a keen eye and budget consideration. This property may be a suitable choice for those who are ready to invest in renovating a three bedroom property with garden in a moderately convenient location, or those who want to improve and create a more valuable family home.
Therefore, we give this property 6 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
