Generous gardens, double garage and excellent school access for growing families.
- Extremely large detached family home, about 2,907 sq ft
This substantial four-bedroom detached home spans three floors and offers extremely large living space (approximately 2,907 sq ft) suitable for a growing family. The principal bedroom includes a walk-in wardrobe and en suite; there are additional modern bathrooms and a flexible layout that includes a study and separate dining room. Outside, a broad landscaped front garden, good-sized lawned areas and a block-paved driveway leading to a double detached garage provide generous outdoor space and parking.
The house blends period character with modern upgrades: Tudor Revival bay windows and original proportions sit alongside a contemporary kitchen with granite worktops, an island and integrated appliances. Practical benefits include double glazing (post-2002), mains gas central heating and fast broadband/mobile signal – useful for home working and family connectivity.
Important negatives are factual: the property sits in an area with very high recorded crime and very high deprivation indices, and the council tax is band G, which is quite expensive. The EPC is D65, so buyers should expect moderate energy costs and potential for improvement. The property dates from 1930–1949, so buyers should allow for age-related maintenance or survey findings.
Positioning is strong for families: Queen Elizabeth Grammar and several primary and secondary schools are nearby, plus easy access to Wakefield city centre and transport links. Overall, this is a roomy, characterful family home with excellent schools and parking, but best suited to buyers who accept local area challenges and the likely ongoing maintenance and running costs.
