Sun-catching rear garden, driveway parking and detached garage

This substantial semi-detached property is configured as two self-contained flats — a three-bedroom ground-floor unit and a two-bedroom first-floor unit — making it well suited to investors seeking immediate rental income or owners wanting flexible occupancy. Both flats feature nicely presented kitchens, modern bathrooms and spacious reception rooms, so minimal internal work is needed before letting.
Externally the house benefits from a sun-catching rear garden, driveway parking and a garage. The building retains Victorian character and solid construction but the exterior brickwork and fence are unpainted and will need some cosmetic attention. There is an outbuilding that could be used for storage or converted (subject to consents).
Practical details strengthen the investment case: a very long lease (approximately 923 years remaining), double glazing installed after 2002, mains gas central heating and a modest council tax band. However, the property sits in a deprived area with average crime levels and slow broadband speeds, factors to consider for rental appeal and yield. Viewings are available on request so buyers can assess condition and rental potential in person.
Local amenities are strong for tenants: good primary and secondary schools nearby, frequent buses, shops and leisure facilities in Southport town centre and coastal attractions within easy reach. The combination of two ready-to-rent flats, decent on-site parking and long leasehold tenure makes this a straightforward buy-to-let proposition with scope for value-adding improvements externally and potentially to broadband provision.
