This three-bedroom detached bungalow in Ruskington, Lincolnshire, presents a mixed bag. Its location is a definite asset, offering proximity to Ruskington train station (0.09km) and several well-regarded schools like Ruskington Chestnut Street Church of England Academy (rated ‘Good’ by Ofsted and only 0.29km away) and Winchelsea Primary School (also ‘Good’ and 1.13km away). The village itself provides a desirable blend of rural charm and convenience, boosting its market appeal. However, the property’s condition shows its age. While structurally sound, the interior photos reveal dated decor and fittings. The carpets appear worn, and the kitchen and bathrooms could benefit significantly from updating. The property shows a need for minor repairs or some cosmetic work. The inclusion of a garden and a detached double garage adds value. Yet, based on the images the land size seems average rather than exceptional. The lack of precise square footage measurements hinders a precise valuation. Nevertheless, referencing nearby similar properties, the listed price of £295,000 seems potentially competitive but could be more accurately assessed with additional data on the property’s size and a more complete view of recent local sales prices. Overall, this is a property that offers a solid base for buyers willing to invest in some modernisation and updating, particularly given its desirable location in a popular village.

Therefore, we give this property 6 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
