Property Oracle says ..
Brookdale Farmhouse, situated on Scarth Hill Lane in Lathom, Ormskirk, presents a unique opportunity for buyers seeking a rural property with significant potential. This three-bedroom, two-bathroom detached farmhouse is listed at £750,000. The property is in need of complete modernisation and renovation. The interior photos showcase outdated fixtures, finishes, and potential damp issues. However, the property boasts extensive grounds as indicated by aerial shots. The land offers plenty of space and options for improvement, expansion or other uses. The property’s proximity to Ormskirk provides access to amenities and transport links, though some distance may require the use of a car. The presence of several schools rated ‘good’ or better by Ofsted nearby is also a positive aspect, making it attractive to families. Considering its condition, the asking price appears reasonable, especially given the size of the land and location, but potential buyers must budget for a substantial renovation. The outbuildings also add considerable potential value, and their size indicates they could be refurbished for various purposes, like additional housing, workshops, or storage. Overall, this property is a fixer-upper with substantial potential, suitable for buyers with vision and the resources to undertake a comprehensive renovation project. A thorough survey and accurate costings for renovation work are vital before making an offer.
Therefore, we give this property 6 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
