A recently renovated two-bedroom end-terrace in the heart of Castleford town centre, offered freehold and ready to move in. The house has been updated throughout with a modern bathroom, double glazing and gas central heating, presenting a straightforward, low-effort home for a first-time buyer or a rental investor.
Living space is compact but efficiently arranged across an average-sized footprint (approx 688 sq ft). The property is an end-terrace on a corner, with a small paved rear yard for bin storage and low-maintenance use rather than gardening. On-street parking serves the property; there is no private driveway or front garden.
Location is a key strength: immediate access to town-centre shops, bus and rail links and several well-rated local schools, including an Outstanding secondary. Broadband and mobile signal are strong. Council tax is very low, which supports running-cost savings.
Material negatives are clear and factual: the area scores high on crime and is within a very deprived local context, which may concern some buyers. The solid brick walls are assumed uninsulated and glazing was installed before 2002, so there is limited thermal performance compared with modern builds. Outside amenity space is small, and parking is on-street only. Buyers should inspect to confirm condition beneath recent finishes and check security needs given the local crime level.
