Property Oracle says ..
This three-bedroom detached house in Ashurst, Skelmersdale, presents a family-friendly option. The listing highlights a recently fitted kitchen, which is a significant plus. The property’s location is convenient, with good primary schools nearby, and train stations within a reasonable distance for commuters. The garden features an artificial lawn and a garden shed, making it low-maintenance. Interior photos reveal a mix of modern and older features. Whilst the kitchen looks modern and updated, other rooms demonstrate various levels of décor and finishing styles, some of which might benefit from a refresh to align with contemporary tastes. The list price of £235,000 appears reasonable considering the property’s attributes, though the complete absence of a plot size is a concern. Further investigation into the plot size and more comprehensive local pricing analysis would be essential for a definitive assessment of its value. The overall condition is acceptable, but some aspects may require attention based on the photos provided. Overall, the property offers a sound base, though prospective buyers should carefully consider the plot size and potentially minor refurbishment needs before committing to a purchase.
Therefore, we give this property 6 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
