The property is located in Irlam, Salford, within the North West district of England. It’s a 2-bedroom, 1-bathroom apartment with a total area of 653.01 sqft and a plot size of 633 sqft. The list price is £118,995.
The property’s location is reasonably convenient, with nearby train stations (Irlam station being 2.55km away) and several primary schools within a short distance (all within 1.35km and rated ‘Good’ by Ofsted). However, the immediate surrounding area lacks detailed pricing information to accurately assess location desirability. More information on local amenities and the general atmosphere of the area would be beneficial.
Based on the provided photographs, the property appears to be in need of some renovation. The flooring requires replacement throughout, and some walls show signs of needing repainting. The kitchen and bathroom, while functional, also appear dated and could benefit from updating. Therefore, a significant amount of work is needed to bring the property to a modern standard.
While the plot size is 633 sqft, the photos indicate this is likely shared communal space, rather than a private garden. Therefore, the lack of private outdoor space is a notable factor.
Considering the property’s condition, the need for renovation, and the lack of a private garden, the asking price of £118,995 requires further analysis. The average price per sqft is unavailable from the provided data, preventing a definitive comparison to similar properties in the area. More comparable local sales data is needed to determine if the list price is reasonable. The nearby listed properties vary significantly in price, ranging from £139,995 to £399,995, highlighting the need for more detailed market analysis to establish a fair market 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. *
