Property Oracle says ..
Smaller Gorse Farm presents a unique opportunity in the Knowsley, Merseyside market. Situated on Alder Lane, it offers a significant amount of land (approximately 6 acres) encompassing meticulously kept gardens and an orchard. The property itself is a substantial detached dwelling with adaptable three or four bedrooms spread across two floors. In addition, there are considerable outbuildings, perhaps most notably an indoor pool and games complex. The images suggest the house requires some modernisation and updating. The existing decor and fixtures appear dated. The pool and leisure complex, in particular, seems to require attention and refurbishment.
The location is a blend of rural peace and reasonable commutability. Although somewhat isolated, the property benefits from relatively close proximity to several train stations, which provide connections to a wider network. Several primary schools are also within reach, although the provided data lacks specific information on secondary schooling options. More information on the square footage of both the house and the plot would be valuable, though it is clear this is a large property.
Overall, Smaller Gorse Farm offers considerable potential. A buyer will need to factor in the cost of refurbishment and modernisation but can expect the extensive grounds and tranquil setting to be highly sought-after. The price seems reasonable in the context of the market and land available, but buyers should seek a professional valuation to verify it.
Therefore, we give this property 7 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
