This four-bedroom terraced house in Askam-in-Furness, Cumbria, presents a mixed bag for potential buyers. The property, marketed by Home and Finance, is listed at £149,995. It benefits from a relatively convenient location near Askam Village School and a train station, ensuring accessibility to transportation and education. The property’s proximity to other amenities is also worth consideration.

The property’s interior condition shows some signs of recent renovation, with a modern bathroom being a highlight. However, many rooms exhibit a need for modernisation and repair. Some rooms need painting, and at least one area shows ongoing unfinished work. This suggests that potential buyers should factor in significant costs for renovations and completing ongoing projects. The kitchen, in particular, shows evidence of work-in-progress, while other areas demonstrate a more lived-in condition.

The exterior photograph shows a terraced house in a residential neighborhood. The property itself shows a typical look of similar homes within the area. The small backyard is a typical feature of such properties and offers limited outdoor space.

Overall, the property offers potential, especially for buyers looking for a project. The list price appears reasonable when considering the size (1,158.95 sqft) and number of bedrooms. However, the extensive renovations needed, and the fact that comparable properties’ square footage isn’t readily available to compare pricing per square foot, mean the property’s true value is somewhat uncertain. A thorough survey and costing for the repairs 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. *
