Summary - 14 Gillann Street WF11 8AB
4 bed 1 bath End of Terrace
Affordable multi-room property with clear rental and refurbishment upside.
Freehold four-bedroom end-terrace across three floors, 1,365 sq ft
This four-bedroom end-of-terrace on Gillann Street offers a substantial footprint across three floors, presenting clear rental and refurbishment potential for investors. The property is freehold, provides 1,365 sq ft of accommodation and benefits from a new combi boiler, double glazing and a private rear garden — practical features that reduce immediate running costs and appeal to tenants.
The interior requires modernisation in places: the kitchen is dated 1980s style and would benefit from an upgrade, and the house has solid brick walls with assumed no cavity insulation. There is a single family bathroom serving four bedrooms, which may limit appeal for larger households without reconfiguration. The small plot and compact garden are manageable but restrict extension possibilities.
Location strengths include fast broadband, excellent mobile signal and straightforward road/bus links for commuting across West Yorkshire. Local amenities are plentiful and three nearby schools include two rated Outstanding, supporting lettings to families or sharers. However, the area shows very high deprivation and above-average crime statistics — factors that affect rental levels and tenant profiles and should be considered in yield calculations.
For an investor, this property is a value entry into Knottingley: modest purchase price, decent size, and immediate income potential after cosmetic updates. Budget to refresh the kitchen, consider insulating solid walls, and assess whether reconfiguring sanitary facilities would improve rental value. A full survey and local lettings appraisal are recommended before purchase.
