A two-bedroom mid-terrace on Ferry Lane offered freehold and chain-free, presenting clear potential for refurbishment or a buy-to-let purchase. The property retains Victorian period character externally and offers practical space across living room, kitchen, cellar and two bedrooms — useful layout for rental yield or a straightforward renovation project. Fast broadband and excellent mobile signal support modern tenancy needs; nearby schools and local amenities add tenant appeal.
The house requires renovation throughout: cosmetic updating, likely thermal improvements (solid brick walls with no insulation assumed), and a general modernisation of fixtures and finishes. There is a small rear garden and some scope to improve kerb appeal, but there is no registered off-street parking — on-street parking only. Buyers should note the high local crime rate and the property’s high flood risk, both important factors for insurance and management costs.
For investors, the low guide price, no upper chain and compact layout make this an accessible entry into the Wakefield market with refurbishment upside. For owner-occupiers or first-time buyers prepared to carry out works, the property offers a cheap council tax band and mains gas central heating, reducing running costs once modernised. Commission a full survey and flood-insurance checks; the property is sold as needing renovation and sold freehold.
