Summary - 35 OXFORD STREET BARNSLEY S70 4PH
3 bed 1 bath Terraced
Affordable starter or buy-to-let close to Barnsley town centre and transport links.
Three bedrooms across three floors, large top-floor principal bedroom
Mid-terrace Victorian property offering three bedrooms across three floors, located on the fringe of Barnsley town centre. The principal bedroom occupies the converted second floor with exposed beams and generous floor area; ground-floor open-plan lounge-diner and rear kitchen open via patio doors to a small enclosed garden. Practical conveniences include mains gas central heating, double glazing (install date unknown), freehold tenure and very low council tax (Band A).
This home suits first-time buyers wanting an affordable starter house or investors seeking a town-centre rental. Transport links are strong with Barnsley Interchange and the M1 within easy reach; local shops, schools (including several rated Good and Outstanding) and amenities are nearby. Fast broadband and excellent mobile signal support working from home or tenant demand.
Be realistic about the constraints: the property sits in a very deprived area with higher local crime levels and a transitional Eastern European neighbourhood character, which may affect resale pricing and rental profile. The original stone walls are likely uninsulated and some updating or insulation work may be needed to improve energy efficiency; buyers should arrange a survey and checks on services and appliances before proceeding.
For investors, the compact plot and town-centre location simplify maintenance and tenant sourcing but expect modest yields relative to lower-risk locations. For first-time buyers, this offers an affordable entry with scope to add value through practical improvements and cosmetic updating.
