Summary - Flat 5, 36, Lathom Road PR9 0JP
6 bed 5 bath Link Detached House
Large versatile layout with basement suite and double garage, chain free.
Double-fronted Edwardian character with high ceilings and bay windows
A rare, double-fronted period home arranged over four floors, this link-detached property suits a large family or multi-occupancy use. High ceilings, bay windows and multiple reception rooms keep the Edwardian character, while the basement suite with two en‑suite bedrooms offers potential for independent living or rental income.
Practical strengths include a large, landscaped rear garden, extensive block-paved driveway and a double-length garage providing generous parking and storage. The property is sold freehold and chain free, close to the promenade, municipal golf course and Southport town centre — handy for schools and local amenities.
Buyers should note material negatives: the house was built c.1900–1929 with cavity walls assumed uninsulated and double glazing fitted before 2002, so upgrading insulation and some services may be required to improve energy efficiency. Council Tax is Band E and the surrounding area records high crime and significant deprivation, factors to weigh for families or investors.
Overall this is a substantial, characterful home with clear potential for adaptation — whether updating to modern standards, creating separate living accommodation in the basement, or retaining as a generous family residence. An internal inspection is recommended to assess decorative and mechanical condition and scope for improvement.
