Summary - 88 SACKVILLE STREET BARNSLEY S70 2BY
3 bed 1 bath Terraced
Ideal project for first-time buyers seeking location and value.
Large three-bedroom Victorian terrace, approx 1,389 sq ft
A spacious three-bedroom Victorian terraced home with generous room sizes and pleasing rear views, offered as a freehold in S70. The property is structurally sound and provides a solid base for modernisation, with mains gas central heating and a large overall footprint of about 1,389 sq ft. Close walking distance to Barnsley town centre, nearby good and outstanding schools, parks, hospital and fast links to the M1, this house suits buyers who value location and long-term potential.
The interior requires renovation: the kitchen is dated and bathrooms limited to a single bathroom, and the property will benefit from updating throughout. Construction details indicate original stone walls likely without insulation, so thermal upgrades and double glazing improvement may be needed to improve energy efficiency. The plot is small with a modest garden; the rear views are a standout feature rather than outside space.
Local context matters: the area shows high crime levels and significant deprivation, which should be considered alongside the low council tax and excellent transport and digital connectivity. For a first-time buyer prepared to invest time and budget in improvement, this house offers room to add value and create a comfortable family home. Investors may also find potential for rental demand thanks to proximity to amenities and transport links.
