This three-bedroom semi-detached house located on Church Lane, Scunthorpe, presents a potentially appealing option for buyers seeking a family home in a reasonably convenient location. The property is close to Scunthorpe General Hospital and benefits from the presence of well-regarded schools within walking distance. The house itself seems to be in fair condition, although the kitchen and bathroom appear slightly dated and could use some updating. While not in pristine condition, the property is certainly habitable and would appeal to families or first-time buyers with an interest in cosmetic improvements.

The garden is modest in size but offers a usable outdoor space, and there is an additional benefit of an outbuilding which could be used as a garage or workshop. The listing price of £165,000 appears reasonable given the location, size, and condition of the property. However, additional research comparing this property with other recently sold homes with precise square footage would provide a more accurate evaluation of its pricing. Considering similar properties listed nearby, the price seems competitive. The absence of details regarding any potential issues such as damp or roofing defects makes a conclusive valuation impossible. A full survey would be essential before purchase to confirm the property’s condition and potential maintenance costs.

Therefore, we give this property 6 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
