Property Oracle says ..
Leicester Close is located in Oakley Vale, Corby, a popular residential area. The property is within walking distance of local schools, including Oakley Vale Primary School and Brooke Weston Academy, both with good Ofsted ratings. The proximity to schools is a significant advantage for families. The Corby railway station is also relatively close, offering convenient transport links. The area appears to be well-maintained, based on the provided images.
The property itself appears to be in excellent condition. The images show a recently renovated or modernised interior with a contemporary kitchen and bathrooms. There is no visible evidence of significant repairs needed. The garden is a notable feature, offering additional outdoor space. The presence of a decked area and artificial turf suggests a low-maintenance but pleasant outdoor area.
The list price of £365,000 is higher than the average price of £298,937 for the area. However, considering the property’s superior condition, the inclusion of a garden, and its proximity to amenities and schools, the price may be justified. The average price per square foot in the area is £296. While the exact square footage of this property isn’t explicitly stated, given the apparent size and quality of the property, the list price might be considered reasonable, although slightly above the average for the area. Further analysis would benefit from knowing the exact square footage of the property to determine the price per square foot and compare it directly to the area average.
Therefore, we give this property 8 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
