Property Oracle says ..
The property is a retirement property located in Southport, Merseyside. While the provided square footage is missing, the list price is £77,000. Nearby properties show prices ranging from £42,500 to £600,000. The average price in the area is significantly higher at £332,920, with an average price per square foot of £293. The lack of square footage data for the subject property makes a direct price per square foot comparison impossible. However, given the average price in the area and the list price of this property, it appears to be priced considerably lower than the average, suggesting it may represent good value. However, this needs to be considered in light of the property’s condition and other factors. The images show the property to be in reasonable condition, though some areas, like the flooring in the living areas, appear to need some attention. The kitchen and bathroom appear to be relatively modern and well-maintained. The property benefits from a garden, which is a positive aspect. The location is close to several schools, with Arden College and St. Philip’s Church of England Primary School receiving ‘Good’ Ofsted ratings. The proximity to Southport train station (Merseyrail) also enhances the property’s accessibility. In summary, considering the lower-than-average price point, the presence of a garden, and the relatively convenient location near schools and transport links, the property presents a potentially attractive option, particularly for those seeking a retirement property. However, potential buyers should factor in the need for some minor improvements or renovations to fully realize the property’s potential.
Therefore, we give this property 7 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
