Property Oracle says ..
This detached bungalow on Westbourne Road, Birkdale, Southport, presents a compelling proposition for buyers seeking a spacious family home in a desirable location. The property benefits from a highly convenient location in Birkdale, offering easy access to local amenities, excellent schools, and transport links including the nearby Birkdale train station. The property’s size (2,336 sq ft) is a definite advantage, providing ample living space. The interior is well-presented, boasting a modern kitchen and a light-filled conservatory extension, both excellent additions which would suit a broad range of buyers. The inclusion of a large garden also adds significant value to the property, offering outdoor space for relaxation and entertaining.
However, the property’s interior decor shows some elements that might be perceived as dated. This suggests that potential buyers may need to factor in costs for renovations to modernize and personalize the living spaces to their taste. The lack of precise information regarding the plot size, despite the photos showing a sizeable garden, makes the evaluation of the true value slightly complicated. The overall condition of the house appears excellent with very well-presented kitchen and bathroom.
In summary, the property presents many strong selling points, including its ideal location, significant size, and excellent outside space. Potential purchasers should be aware that some modernisation could be required to fully realise the property’s potential and to ensure it meets the standards of a wide range of buyers. Overall, it appears to be a solid investment in a sought-after neighbourhood.
Therefore, we give this property 7 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
