Property Oracle says ..
This five-bedroom end-terrace house in Highfields, Leicester, presents a mixed bag of opportunities and challenges. The location in Highfields is a clear advantage; it’s described as a popular and convenient area with good access to transport links and amenities. The proximity to well-regarded schools like Uplands Junior L.E.A.D Academy adds to its family-friendly appeal. However, the property’s condition needs considerable attention. The photos reveal a significant amount of clutter and disorganisation throughout the house, making it difficult to accurately judge the property’s structural condition. A deep clean is certainly required and potential repairs and redecoration will likely be necessary to bring the property to a marketable standard. Moreover, the complete lack of garden or outdoor space is a significant drawback for many buyers. The price of £350,000 seems a bit ambitious considering the current condition and the need for improvements; a more detailed assessment after a professional viewing would help to determine a more accurate valuation and ensure the pricing is reflective of the property’s true market value. A buyer should factor in potential refurbishment costs before making an offer.
Therefore, we give this property 4 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
