Property Oracle says ..
The property is a 2-bedroom apartment located in Wallingford, Oxfordshire, listed at £247,500. Wallingford is a desirable market town with good amenities and transport links. The proximity to several schools, including Wallingford School (rated ‘Good’ by Ofsted), is a significant positive. The nearby Great Western Railway stations at Cholsey and Goring & Streatley offer convenient access to other parts of the UK.
The apartment itself appears to be in excellent condition, based on the provided images. The interior is modern and well-maintained, suggesting minimal need for renovation or repair. The communal areas also appear to be well-kept and offer additional amenities. However, the property lacks a private garden, which might be a drawback for some buyers.
Considering the average house price in the area (£495,204) and the average price per square foot (£579), the listed price of £247,500 for this 215.28 sqft apartment seems relatively reasonable, particularly when compared to other similar properties on Empress Drive. While the average price per sqft in the wider area is higher, the smaller size and lack of a private garden likely contribute to the lower list price. The nearby comparable properties further support the reasonableness of the asking price.
Therefore, we give this property 6 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
