This three-bedroom semi-detached house in South Kirkby offers an affordable entry into homeownership with practical space and useful extras. Ground-floor layout includes a bright reception room, a modern kitchen with dining area and a convenient WC — well suited to first-time buyers or young families seeking straightforward, liveable accommodation.
Externally the property benefits from an enclosed private rear garden and a driveway for off-street parking — both hard-to-find assets locally. Gas central heating, uPVC double glazing and an EPC rating of D provide baseline comfort and reasonable running costs; council tax is low (Band A), which helps monthly affordability.
Buyers should be aware of material local and property considerations: the area is classified as very deprived with higher-than-average crime, and the house sits in a neighbourhood described as industrious hardship. The construction is post‑war system-built with assumed lack of wall insulation, so buyers may wish to budget for insulating works or other energy-efficiency improvements. The property is described as needing some modernisation in places, offering scope to add value through targeted refurbishment.
Overall, this home is a pragmatic, cost-effective option for first-time purchasers who prioritise transport links, outdoor space and low holding costs, and who are comfortable investing modestly to improve energy performance and finish. Early viewing recommended to assess condition and potential.
