Tempertons says ..
A late Victorian / early Edwardian brick and tile built detached home in need of a full refurbishment programme, fronting Stafford Road just a short distance off the district centre having easy access to all the normal amenities.
Property Oracle says ..
This two-bedroom, one-bathroom property located on Stafford Road in Oakengates, Telford, presents a mixed bag of prospects. The property’s location is a definite strength. Oakengates offers convenient access to local amenities such as shops and schools, while the close proximity to the train station is a significant plus for commuters. Several highly-rated primary schools are within walking distance, a significant benefit for families.
However, the property’s condition is a major drawback. The photographs clearly depict a house in need of extensive refurbishment. Outdated interiors, worn flooring and wallpaper, and a general lack of upkeep are evident. A prospective buyer should factor in a substantial budget for renovation and modernisation works, which may include replacing fixtures, fittings, and potentially carrying out more significant structural work. The garden, although present, is currently overgrown and will require considerable effort to restore to a usable state.
The asking price of £180,000 needs careful consideration. While some nearby properties have sold for similar prices, the absence of specific square footage data for comparable properties makes an accurate price-per-square-foot comparison difficult. While the location could justify this price point following significant renovation, the substantial renovation cost needs to be factored into any offer. A thorough survey is crucial before making a purchase decision to assess the full extent of the required repairs and potential hidden issues. Prospective buyers should approach this property as a renovation project, weighing the potential return on investment after completing the necessary works against the initial cost and the risk involved in any renovation project.
Therefore, we give this property 5 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
