This bay-fronted Victorian semi delivers flexible family living across three floors, with four bedrooms and generous reception space. High ceilings and period features such as decorative cornicing and a bay window give character, while a large southwest-facing rear garden offers excellent outdoor space for children and entertaining.
The ground floor includes a lounge, a fitted kitchen/diner opening to a conservatory, and a versatile fourth bedroom or study, plus a convenient ground-floor WC. Upstairs there is a family bathroom with a four-piece suite and, on the top floor, a sizable master bedroom with an en suite — useful for a growing household or multigenerational living.
Practical positives include driveway parking, double glazing (installed before 2002) and an 866-year lease giving long-term security. Nearby schools rated Good and straightforward transport links make this practical for family life in Southport.
Buyers should note a few material considerations: the property is leasehold (long lease) and sits in an area with slower broadband speeds and higher local deprivation compared with national averages. The cavity walls appear to lack insulation (as built) and the glazing is older, so upgrading for energy efficiency may be sensible. These are largely standard for a house of this era and present opportunity for improvement rather than immediate defect.
