A compact mid-terrace with freehold ownership and chain-free sale, this two-bedroom property sits in a well-connected part of Dewsbury. The ground floor offers an open-plan lounge and kitchen and a private rear garden; the first floor hosts two bedrooms and a fitted bathroom. EPC rating C and council tax band A keep running costs lower than average.
The house is currently tenant-occupied with no arrears and an established tenant in place, making it immediately income-generating for a buy-to-let investor. Commuters will appreciate fast broadband, excellent mobile signal and direct links to the M62/M1 and local public transport.
The property requires modernisation throughout: signs of plaster damage, a narrow uneven staircase, low ceilings in one small bedroom and potential damp in that room. The dwelling was built 1900–1929 and appears to have cavity walls without added insulation; a full renovation will be needed to bring it to modern standards and improve energy efficiency.
This is suited to a hands-on first-time buyer prepared to upgrade a modest home, or an investor seeking a low-entry freehold buy with near-term rental income. Be realistic about the renovation budget and the local context: the area is very deprived with higher-than-average crime statistics, which will affect letting demand and resale positioning.
