Property Oracle says ..
The property is located on Bear Road in Brighton, East Sussex. The area benefits from relatively close proximity to Moulsecoomb train station (1.08km), providing convenient access to Brighton city centre and beyond. Several primary schools with ‘Good’ Ofsted ratings are within a short distance, making it potentially attractive to families.
The property itself is a two-bedroom house with one bathroom. The provided photographs reveal that the property is in need of significant renovation and modernisation. Many rooms show signs of disrepair, including damaged walls and flooring, and require substantial work before being habitable. The garden, while present, is also overgrown and cluttered, needing considerable attention.
Considering the condition of the property, the need for extensive renovations, and the relatively small plot size, the list price of £325,000 appears to be at the higher end of the market value. The average price per square foot in the area (£429) is significantly higher than what one would expect for a property requiring this level of work. While the location is reasonably convenient, the considerable cost of renovations would need to be factored into any assessment of value.
Therefore, we give this property 4 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
