Three double bedrooms, versatile family layout
This bright three-bedroom semi-detached house in First Avenue offers practical family living in a well-connected South Kirkby location. Neutrally decorated and largely move-in ready, the house has two reception rooms and a modern fitted kitchen with patio doors opening to an enclosed rear garden — good space for children and outdoor dining.
Upstairs are three double bedrooms and a contemporary bathroom with a separate shower cubicle. Practical features include off-street parking, a detached garage, mains gas central heating via a boiler and radiators, double glazing (installed before 2002), and favourable Council Tax Band A, keeping running costs low.
The property sits close to several Good-rated primary schools and benefits from excellent public transport links, fast broadband and strong mobile signal — useful for working families and first-time buyers. Important to note: the area has high crime rates and is classified as very deprived and industrial hardship, which may affect resale and neighbourhood feel. Image notes also indicate some roof repairs; buyers should budget for any minor maintenance and confirm the condition in survey reports.
Overall, this freehold mid-20th-century semi is a sensible, affordable family home with scope for straightforward updating. It will suit purchasers seeking good local schools, transport access and low council tax, while those prioritising low-crime or higher‑affluence neighbourhoods should carefully consider the local area profile.
