This three-bedroom mid-terrace offers an affordable entry into Skelmersdale with no onward chain and freehold tenure. The house has a traditional brick façade, double glazing and gas central heating throughout, plus a small rear lawn and paved patio — useful for low-maintenance outdoor space.
Internally the layout is straightforward: a front reception room with a gas hearth, a compact dining kitchen with built-in hob and oven, utility area and a family bathroom. Room sizes are modest and the property totals about 678 sq ft, so it suits first-time buyers or buy-to-let purchasers looking for a compact, manageable home in a well-connected neighbourhood.
The property will benefit from cosmetic updating rather than structural overhaul; pictures and description indicate laminate floors and neutral decoration but also signal straightforward renovation potential to increase value. Practical positives include very low council tax, fast broadband, excellent mobile signal and proximity to shops, the new ALDI and several primary and secondary schools.
Be realistic about downsides: the plot and rooms are small, the wider area contains pockets of deprivation and some nearby schools have lower Ofsted ratings. On-street or small forecourt parking only. This is a budget-priced opportunity for buyers who want a manageable project or an investor targeting rental demand in an established urban terrace location.
