This four-bedroom semi-detached house on Lytham Road, Blackpool, presents a mixed bag. It’s situated in a location that offers convenient access to schools such as Armfield Academy and Thames Primary Academy, along with relatively close proximity to Blackpool Pleasure Beach train station. The period features, such as the stained-glass windows and the general architectural style, could be attractive to buyers looking for a property with character. However, the property is clearly in need of extensive renovation. The images reveal outdated kitchens and bathrooms, unfinished areas, and overall a state of disrepair that requires considerable investment to bring it up to modern standards. The exterior appears to be well maintained from the limited photos. The garden is present but appears small and perhaps in need of landscaping. The lack of available square footage data makes it impossible to analyze price per square foot; although comparative house prices are available, they have no square footage to compare, hence an accurate price to sqft analysis is not possible. While the list price of £229,950 is in line with some similar properties in the area, the substantial renovation costs must be factored in to determine the true value for money. Prospective buyers should carefully weigh the potential return on investment required after renovations. Overall, this is a property that requires a significant amount of work, so a buyer must be comfortable with a renovation project and assess the potential costs against the sale price.

Therefore, we give this property 5 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
