This three-bedroom terraced house in Rainhill, Merseyside, presents a mixed bag for potential buyers. The property’s location is a strong point. Rainhill offers a balance between suburban tranquility and convenient access to transport links and amenities such as schools and Whiston Hospital. The proximity to Rainhill train station enhances its appeal for commuters. Several nearby primary schools received ‘Good’ or ‘Outstanding’ Ofsted ratings, which is beneficial to families.

However, the property’s condition needs considerable attention. The images reveal dated decor and the need for significant modernisation throughout the house. The interior looks tired and requires substantial updating to modernize it and bring it up to a contemporary standard. Potential buyers must factor in renovation costs into their budget.

The garden provides average outdoor space for a terraced house. The included shed appears functional. It’s important to note the size and condition of both the garden and shed in the context of a terraced property.

The list price of £150,000 appears reasonably priced compared to other similar properties in Rainhill, particularly those requiring similar renovation work. However, a thorough property survey and detailed cost estimation for renovations are essential before committing to a purchase.

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