This bay-fronted Victorian mid-terrace on Portman Road offers a straightforward, chain-free purchase and strong scope for modernisation. Set across two floors with 924 sqft of accommodation, the layout includes two reception rooms, a practical rear kitchen and three bedrooms — two comfortable doubles plus a flexible third room.
The property retains period character and benefits from double glazing and a small, low-maintenance rear yard with shed storage. Its position in sought-after Wavertree places Sefton Park and Mystery Park moments away, with fast public transport links and easy road access for commuters.
Important practical points: the house needs renovation and updating throughout, with dated kitchen fittings and general modernization required. The area records higher local crime and very high deprivation indices; buyers should factor renovation costs and context into their plans. Freehold tenure, on-street parking and a very low council tax band are useful financial positives.
For a first-time buyer or buyer-investor prepared to renovate, this is a blank canvas in a popular location. The combination of period features, dual reception rooms and nearby green space gives good potential to create a comfortable family home or rentable asset once updated.
