Chain-free three-bedroom semi-detached, freehold
Chain-free three-bedroom semi in Swinton offered at an entry-level price, suited to buyers ready to update. The house sits on a small urban plot with off-street parking and a rear garden that requires clearance and landscaping. Internally the layout is practical — bay-fronted lounge, dining kitchen, three bedrooms and a family bathroom — but finishes are dated and require modernisation.
This property is attractive to a first-time buyer or investor who can take on cosmetic and functional improvements: replacement kitchen and bathroom, new flooring, and garden clearance would significantly improve comfort and value. Services appear to be mains-connected (gas central heating present though untested); buyers should commission routine checks and surveys before purchase.
Location benefits include low local crime, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal, nearby amenities and several Good-rated primary and secondary schools. Note the wider area is classified as deprived and South Yorkshire has former coal-mining influence — prospective purchasers should check the Coal Authority and raise statutory searches with their solicitor.
Practical points: council tax is low (Band A), flood risk is low and the property is freehold. Expect typical renovation costs for an older brick-built house in need of modernisation; the house is presented as a value-led refurbishment opportunity rather than a move-in-ready home.
