Summary - 5 FILEY AVENUE ROYSTON BARNSLEY S71 4PZ
3 bed 1 bath Semi-Detached
Chain-free Victorian semi with a paved rear courtyard garden.
Three bedrooms in a compact 743 sq ft layout
This three-bedroom semi-detached home on Filey Avenue offers straightforward, move-in-ready accommodation for families seeking an affordable starter house. The property combines period character with practical updates: double glazing (installed before 2002), mains gas boiler and radiators, and a fully enclosed courtyard-style garden paved with Indian stone.
Internally the layout is compact (approximately 743 sq ft) with modest room sizes across two floors: lounge, dining room, kitchen, three bedrooms and a single family bathroom. The house is freehold and chain-free, making a quick sale and occupation possible. Broadband speeds are fast and there is no flooding risk.
Buyers should be aware of the wider context: the immediate area is classified as very deprived with above-average crime levels and predominantly blue-collar terraces. The property’s solid brick walls are assumed uninsulated, which could mean higher heating costs unless upgraded. Despite being presented as ready to live in, there is clear potential for further improvement or cosmetic modernisation to increase comfort and long-term value.
Nearby schools have good Ofsted ratings and local amenities include health services, a pharmacy, playground and sports facilities, supporting family life. Priced around £150,000, this home suits buyers prioritising affordability and convenience, or investors seeking a value-driven purchase with scope to refurbish.
