Summary - 48 GELDERD ROAD BIRSTALL BATLEY WF17 9PX
2 bed 1 bath Cottage
Characterful two-bed cottage near Birstall centre — ideal for first-time buyers ready to modernise..
Victorian stone-built cottage with character features
A traditional two-bedroom Victorian cottage with characterful stone facade, exposed beam in the lounge and practical cellar storage. The house sits within easy walking distance of Birstall town centre, good local schools and fast road links to Junction 27 retail park and the motorway — useful for commuters and families alike.
The accommodation is liveable now but shows signs of age: the kitchen, conservatory/utility and bathroom are dated and would benefit from updating. The conservatory area shows evidence of damp/mould and the original stone walls have no assumed cavity insulation, so there is clear scope (and cost) for thermal and cosmetic improvement.
Outside there’s a small front garden, enclosed rear garden with paved seating and a gated plot with detached garage — useful parking or storage. Double glazing and mains gas central heating are already installed, and the property is offered freehold with low council tax and low local crime rates.
This cottage will suit a first-time buyer or small family wanting character and a convenient location who are prepared to carry out modernization work. It will also appeal to buyers seeking a period property with refurbishment potential rather than a fully renovated turnkey home.
