The asking price is in line with some nearby properties but may be slightly above average for a one-bedroom property in Loughborough. Considering the desirable location and canal views, it’s not unreasonably high, especially if the property is in good working order internally despite the cosmetic limitations mentioned in the condition rationale. More local market data on comparable properties would provide a more certain determination of price versus value. Therefore, it receives a score of 7.

The property appears generally well-maintained from the provided images, although the kitchen and interior decor appear somewhat dated. While there are no visible signs of major structural damage, an update to the kitchen and possibly bathroom could enhance its appeal. Therefore, it gets a score of 6.

The property benefits from a canal-side location in Loughborough, offering a peaceful environment. Proximity to Loughborough town centre, train station, and several schools (within a kilometer radius), including well-regarded primary schools like St. Mary’s Catholic Primary and Limehurst Academy rated as ‘Good’ by Ofsted, enhances its appeal. However, the immediate surroundings appear relatively quiet, which might be a positive or negative aspect depending on buyer preferences. Canal-side properties are often desirable, but limited local amenities necessitate short commutes to Loughborough’s centre. Therefore, it gets a score of 7.

The property has a small, low-maintenance garden area, as evident in the exterior images. The limited space restricts outdoor living options. Therefore it recieves a score of 2.
