The property is located on Osmaston Road in Prenton, Wirral. Prenton is a desirable area known for its good schools and family-friendly atmosphere. The proximity to several well-regarded primary schools, such as Prenton Primary School and Oxton St Saviour’S Cofe Aided Primary School (both rated ‘Good’ by Ofsted), is a significant positive. Additionally, the relatively close distance to several Merseyrail stations provides convenient access to public transportation. The presence of a substantial garden adds to the property’s appeal.

The property itself appears to be a period property, retaining many original features. While some aspects, such as the carpets and decor, are dated, the structural condition seems sound. However, a significant amount of modernisation and updating would be required to bring the property to a contemporary standard. The kitchen and bathrooms, in particular, appear to be in need of refurbishment. The overall condition suggests the property would benefit from some investment.

The list price of £575,000 is considerably higher than the average price of £243,499 for properties in the area. However, the property is substantially larger than the average at 1,425 sqft compared to the average of 1,194 sqft. While the average price per sqft in the area is £203, the lack of sqft data for comparable properties makes a precise price per sqft comparison difficult. Nearby properties on Osmaston Road have sold for between £310,000 and £483,440, indicating a range of prices for similar properties in the same location. This suggests the list price is at the higher end of the market but not necessarily unreasonable given the size and location of the property, provided the necessary renovations are factored into the cost.

Based on the information provided, the property offers a combination of desirable features, including a good location, a large garden, and a substantial size, but requires significant modernisation. The list price reflects this combination of advantages and disadvantages.

Therefore, we give this property 7 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
