Summary - 38 ELMSWOOD ROAD BIRKENHEAD CH42 7HP
2 bed 1 bath Terraced
Move-in ready Victorian terrace — great first purchase or buy-to-let in a well-connected location.
Chain-free freehold two-bedroom mid-terrace, approx 698 sq.ft
This newly renovated two-bedroom mid-terrace offers a genuinely move-in ready home for first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors. Recent improvements include a new flat roof with updated fascias and guttering, a modern boiler fitted and serviced within five years, double glazing and fresh internal finishes — so most major costs are already addressed.
The ground floor has a bright open-plan lounge and dining area with a bay window, plus a practical kitchen and porch. Upstairs are two bedrooms and a family bathroom; the layout is traditional and easy to furnish. At approximately 698 sq.ft, the house is an average-sized property that feels compact but well planned.
Location is convenient: local shops, frequent bus routes and several primary and secondary schools are within easy reach, and broadband and mobile signals are strong. The freehold, chain-free sale makes a swift move straightforward for purchasers who want minimal delay.
Buyers should note a few material considerations. The wider area is very deprived with above-average crime statistics and a high proportion of constrained renters; this affects resale and lettings markets. The small rear plot limits outdoor space and there is likely no cavity wall insulation in the original solid brick walls, which could mean higher heating costs unless upgraded. Council tax band is not provided and should be checked prior to purchase.
