Summary - 6 CHILWELL CLOSE BARNSLEY S71 3NZ
2 bed 1 bath Semi-Detached Bungalow
Low-cost, single-storey home with garden, garage and parking — lease extension likely needed.
Semi-detached single-storey bungalow, two bedrooms
This two-bedroom semi-detached bungalow offers single-storey living with practical outdoor space and parking — a straightforward option for downsizers or those seeking low-maintenance accommodation. The property sits on a larger-than-expected plot with front and rear gardens, a long drive and a detached garage, plus a light conservatory that extends living space for morning sun or a small dining area.
Internally the layout is compact (approximately 549 sq ft) with a generous lounge, fitted kitchen, two bedrooms and a wet room. Double glazing and mains gas central heating provide everyday comfort; council tax band A keeps running costs low. The bungalow is modern in style (built early 1990s) and will suit buyers looking for a tidy, easy-to-manage home rather than a major renovation project.
Important practical points: the property is leasehold with only 67 years remaining. That level of lease remaining can affect mortgage availability and value — many lenders may be reluctant to lend without a lease extension. Additional costs are possible for leasehold packs and an extension should be budgeted for. The local area is noted as very deprived and crime levels are above average, which may concern some buyers and could affect resale.
Overall this is a sensible, affordable bungalow with good parking, a garage and garden space. It will appeal most to cash buyers, downsizers, or buyers prepared to handle a lease extension process. Prospective purchasers should commission their own surveys, check mortgage eligibility given the lease length, and obtain full lease details before committing.
