A practical two-bedroom semi on a quiet cul-de-sac, offered as a 50% shared ownership or with the option to buy 100% outright. The layout includes an entrance hall, lounge, kitchen/diner, downstairs WC, two bedrooms and a house bathroom — an efficient plan for a first-time buyer or a small family. The property benefits from double glazing, gas central heating, off-street parking and enclosed front and rear gardens, plus no upward vendor chain for a quicker move.
This is a budget-friendly purchase: the advertised price reflects the shared ownership offer, with clear monthly charges if retaining a 50% share (service charge £55.39pcm; shared ownership charge £194.29pcm). Buying the full 100% removes shared ownership but incurs a modest monthly charge of £35.97. The 83 years remaining on the lease should be noted by buyers considering the 50% purchase.
The location gives easy access to the M1 for commuting, is a short walk to the town centre and nearby green space at Locke Park. Local primary and secondary schools nearby include several rated Good and Outstanding. Be aware the wider area has higher-than-average crime and very high deprivation indicators — useful to factor into long-term plans or rental prospects.
Overall, this property suits first-time buyers or investors seeking an affordable entry in Barnsley. It is presented in average condition and offers scope to personalise; buyers looking for a low-maintenance, high-spec home should expect some updating and should check lease details and ongoing charges before committing.
