Summary - Livingstone Terrace, Barnsley, South Yorkshire S70 1PH
3 bed 1 bath Terraced
Affordable fixer with strong transport links and clear value-up potential.
Freehold three-bed end-terrace over three floors
This three-bedroom end-terrace in central Barnsley is a budget-priced project with clear add-value potential. Set over three floors, the layout includes a front lounge with feature fireplace, a workable kitchen/diner, a first-floor shower room and a spacious attic bedroom. The property is freehold with gas central heating and double glazing already installed.
The house requires full refurbishment throughout — cosmetic upgrades alongside likely kitchen, bathroom and heating improvements are needed. The solid brick walls are assumed uninsulated and some images suggest wear and possible damp; buyers should factor in repair and improvement costs. The small overall footprint and compact garden give straightforward, low-maintenance outdoor space.
Location is a principal strength: Barnsley town centre amenities, the Glass Works retail/leisure complex, Locke Park and good rail and road links (M1 nearby) are all within easy reach, supporting resale or rental demand. Local schools have strong Ofsted ratings, and broadband and mobile signals are good.
This home suits investors or buyers seeking a hands-on renovation in a deprived area with strong transport links and clear scope to add value. Be aware the immediate locality records very high crime levels, so consider security and budgeting for robust repairs. Viewing is recommended to fully assess condition and potential.
