Established one bedroom first floor apartment located in a quiet position, two miles South West from the City Centre. The flat has just been decorated and also has new flooring throughout.
Property Oracle says ..
This one-bedroom apartment located at Hollytree Court in Colchester’s Shrub End area presents a promising opportunity for first-time buyers or investors. The property has recently undergone renovations, including new flooring and decor throughout, giving it a modern feel. The kitchen and bathroom appear modern and well-maintained. The building’s exterior shows some signs of age but is generally well-kept. While the property benefits from proximity to good schools and Colchester Town train station, the lack of a private garden or substantial outdoor space is a notable limitation. The listed price of £122,500 appears reasonably competitive in the context of the Colchester market; however, it is necessary to carefully consider the limited space and make comparisons to the average price in the immediate area of Overstone Court which is significantly higher. Further investigation into the specifics of the apartment’s square footage and available amenities would allow for a more precise evaluation of its value for money. Potential buyers should independently verify all information and compare this property to other similar listings in the area before making a purchase decision. The property offers a convenient location and presents itself in good condition, making it a suitable option for individuals seeking affordability and easy access to amenities and transport. However, potential buyers should be aware of the limitations of the property’s size and lack of outdoor space.
Therefore, we give this property 5 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
