A sizeable through-terrace in LS9 offering flexible four-floor living across approximately 1,076 sq ft. The property is chain-free and sold freehold, making it a straightforward purchase for buyers wanting quick completion and scope to add value. Two double bedrooms, a lounge with a feature fireplace, fitted kitchen and basement cellar rooms give practical space and storage not often found at this price point.
The house is a period Victorian mid-terrace with solid brick walls and double glazing; however, the property shows wear and will benefit from updating. Heating is mains gas with a boiler and radiators in place, but the assumed lack of wall insulation and dated finishes mean further thermal improvements and cosmetic refurbishment will be needed. The rear yard is small and there is no significant garden.
Location is a strong selling point for those who need easy access to Leeds city centre, major roads (A64/A1/M1 links), public transport and local amenities including shops, pubs and healthcare. Several local primary and secondary schools have good or outstanding Ofsted ratings, and St James’s Hospital is within convenient reach. Broadband speeds and mobile signal are reported as fast and excellent respectively—useful for modern occupants or rental demand.
This house will suit investors seeking a renovation project with rental potential, or buyers looking for a centrally located, larger-than-average period home who are prepared to modernise. Important negatives: the area is described as very deprived with high crime levels, the plot is very small, and the property requires maintenance and upgrading to improve comfort and energy efficiency.
