This three-bedroom semi-detached house in Ambergate, Skelmersdale, presents a mixed bag for prospective buyers. Its location offers reasonable proximity to local schools, such as Delph Side Community Primary School and Little Digmoor Primary School, both rated as ‘Good’ by Ofsted. Several train stations, such as Rainford, Upholland, and Parbold, are within a feasible commuting distance. However, Skelmersdale itself may not be considered a highly desirable location by all buyers.

The property’s condition is acceptable but not outstanding. The interior decor appears dated, and while the property appears structurally sound, the pictures suggest the need for cosmetic improvements to bring it up-to-date. The kitchen and bathrooms are functional but could benefit from a refresh.

The property does have a rear garden; however, the extent and quality of the garden space are limited. The photos depict a mainly gravelled area, offering limited space for outdoor activities or landscaping. The lack of detail on the plot size makes it difficult to assess the garden properly.

The list price of £155,000 sits within the price range of similar properties in the area. However, the absence of accurate square footage data for comparable properties makes it challenging to calculate a precise price per square foot. Hence, it’s difficult to definitively classify the price as exceptionally good value. The property’s price is relatively reasonable but may not represent an outstanding investment opportunity.

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