Summary - 17 STAFFORD STREET SKELMERSDALE WN8 8JA
2 bed 1 bath Terraced
Affordable starter home with renovation potential near local shops and transport.
Chain free two-bedroom mid-terrace, freehold
A compact mid-terraced two-bedroom house in Old Skelmersdale, offered chain free and suited to a first-time buyer or buy-to-let investor. The property benefits from gas central heating, double glazing fitted after 2002 and a large open-plan lounge/diner providing flexible living space on the ground floor.
Rooms are modest but workable: a generous front double, a smaller rear bedroom and a fitted kitchen with direct access to a paved rear yard. The footprint is small (approx. 692 sq ft) and the layout is efficient, so running costs and upkeep are typically lower than larger homes.
Buyers should note the property’s age and construction: solid brick terraced stock with no presumed wall insulation and low ceilings in places. The exterior and some internal finishes appear dated and there are indications of past damp and general wear — cosmetic updating and insulation improvements would enhance comfort and value. The rear yard is paved and very small, with no garage or garden.
Located in a built-up urban area with good local amenities, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal, the house is close to primary and secondary schools and bus links. For buyers seeking a modest, affordable starter home or a straightforward rental let, this offers clear potential once minor modernisation and energy improvements are addressed.
