A traditional Victorian end-terraced house in central Birkenhead, presented in tidy, move-in condition and suited to first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors. The property offers a lounge, well-fitted kitchen-diner and a ground-floor three-piece bathroom, with two well-proportioned bedrooms upstairs. Its compact footprint and low-maintenance decked courtyard make it straightforward to run and easy to let or occupy.
Practical benefits include mains gas central heating, double glazing and good digital connectivity — excellent mobile signal and fast broadband — plus very low council tax. The location is convenient for public transport and local amenities, with several primary schools rated Good nearby and reasonable commuting links to Liverpool.
Important negatives are clear: the area is very deprived with very high crime levels, and the plot and external amenity space are very small. The property’s solid brick walls are likely uninsulated and the EPC indicates current energy efficiency at band E (45) with potential to reach band C (75) after upgrades. Buyers should budget for energy improvements and confirm condition in person.
Overall this is a practical, affordable terraced home with sensible running costs and clear refurbishment potential. It will appeal to buyers seeking a compact, well-located starter home or landlords targeting steady rental demand, provided they accept the urban setting and factor in neighbourhood issues.
