Property Oracle says ..
The property is a two-bedroom apartment located in Hamilton, Leicester. The location benefits from being relatively close to several primary schools, including Hope Hamilton Cofe Primary School (0.49km) and Kestrel Mead Primary Academy (0.78km). A sixth-form college, Gateway Sixth Form College, is also within a reasonable distance (1.31km). The proximity to these educational institutions could be attractive to families. Transportation links appear to be within a reasonable distance, with Syston train station 4.28km away. However, more information on the quality and frequency of public transport would be needed for a complete assessment.
Based on the provided images, the property appears to be in good condition. The interior is modern and clean, with recently installed flooring and updated fixtures. There is no visible evidence of significant damage or disrepair. The kitchen and bathroom appear well-maintained.
The property’s land is limited, as it is an apartment. The images show a small communal green space, but no private garden is evident.
The list price of £128,950 is significantly lower than the area average of £339,511. However, this is expected given that the property is an apartment rather than a house, and the average price per sqft in the area is £317. Considering the nearby comparable listings, which range from £130,000 to £150,000 for similar two-bedroom apartments, the list price falls within a reasonable range. The lack of sqft information for the subject property and comparable properties makes a definitive price per sqft comparison impossible. Further information on the size of the apartment would allow for a more precise assessment of value.
Therefore, we give this property 6 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
