A practical starter home in Wakefield that keeps running costs low and commuting easy. This two-bedroom semi-detached house offers a modern kitchen, driveway parking for two cars and an enclosed rear garden — essentials for first-time buyers wanting outdoor space and parking without heavy maintenance.
Sold via shared ownership (25% for £52,000) this property reduces the upfront cost of buying while retaining long-term security with a 990-year lease. The home is gas-heated, double-glazed and arranged over two floors with a downstairs WC and a contemporary first-floor bathroom, so moving in requires minimal immediate work.
Potential buyers should note the shared ownership arrangement includes an additional monthly rent of £425.52 on the unsold 75% and the property is leasehold. The local area has higher recorded crime levels, although the neighbourhood is described as comfortable and close to good schools, Wakefield city centre and the M1/M62 for commuting.
Overall this is a sensible, low-entry opportunity for a buyer seeking a modern, low-maintenance home with parking and a garden — particularly suited to first-time buyers prepared to buy through shared ownership and budget for the ongoing rent element.
