This six-bedroom end-terraced home on Aughton Street is a ready-made investment in central Ormskirk, a short walk from the train station and Edge Hill University. The property is presented in modern decorative order throughout, with a bright fitted kitchen, spacious communal lounge, and a low-maintenance rear courtyard. Freehold tenure and proven student rental use make it straightforward to operate as a buy-to-let.
Accommodation is arranged to maximise occupancy and communal living: two ground-floor bedrooms, a ground-floor shower room, four first-floor bedrooms and an additional WC. Room sizes are generous for this property’s small overall footprint, and high ceilings and large windows retain period character and natural light. Practical features include double-glazed windows, good mobile signal and fast broadband—useful for tenants or sharers.
There are important considerations to note. The house has only one full bathroom plus a separate WC, which may limit appeal for some family buyers and requires management for multi-occupancy. The plot and garden area are small (paved courtyard), and the property sits in an area flagged with higher-than-average crime—relevant for investors and occupants. While the local area is affluent overall, prospective buyers should factor in security and tenant demand specifics.
Overall, the home represents a convenient, low-maintenance investment with immediate rental potential or conversion to a family house. It suits buyers seeking an income-generating property close to transport and university amenities, while those wanting larger outdoor space or multiple bathrooms may prefer alternative layouts.
