This Victorian semi-detached home offers four bedrooms and generous reception space in a convenient Southport location, close to shops, schools and rail links. High ceilings, bay windows and period features give the house character and a welcoming living environment for a growing family. The layout includes two reception rooms, a fitted kitchen and a private rear garden with off-street parking to the front.
Practical details support everyday living: mains gas heating with boiler and radiators, double glazing installed post-2002, freehold tenure and an EPC rating of D. Several well-regarded primary and secondary schools are within easy reach, making the property suitable for families who prioritise local education and commuter access.
Buyers should note this is a compact property overall (988 sq ft) with one family bathroom serving four bedrooms — something that might be limiting for larger households. Broadband speeds are slow in the area and crime rates are above average, which are important factors for household planning. The home shows potential but will likely benefit from cosmetic updating and possible reconfiguration to maximise space and modern comfort.
Overall, this is a characterful period home in a practical central setting for families or buyers seeking rental potential. It rewards buyers prepared to invest in targeted refurbishment to improve layout, energy performance and connectivity.
