Summary - 8 JOFFRE AVENUE CASTLEFORD WF10 5AZ
2 bed 1 bath Terraced
Tenant-occupied freehold terrace with new boiler and short-term investor appeal.
Sold with tenants in situ — immediate rental income
A straightforward investment opportunity in central Castleford: this two-bedroom mid-terrace offers a compact, tenant-occupied income stream and low running costs. The property has bright rooms and tall ceilings that give the interior a more spacious feel than the footprint suggests. A recently fitted mains-gas boiler (installed 14/02/25) comes with a 10-year warranty, reducing immediate maintenance risk.
The layout is conventional and practical — living room to the front, kitchen/dining to the rear with direct access to a small enclosed garden, and two good-sized bedrooms upstairs alongside a tiled bathroom. Solid brick construction and post-2002 double glazing improve thermal performance, though the walls are assumed to be without added cavity insulation.
Notable points for buyers: the property is sold freehold with tenants in situ, so it suits investors wanting rental income rather than an immediate vacant possession project. EPC rating D and council tax band A reflect modest running costs but indicate scope for energy improvement works. The plot is small and the house is typical of inter-war terraced stock, so outdoor space and room sizes remain compact.
Location is practical for commuting and daily needs: local schools (including a nearby outstanding secondary), shops, bus links and fast broadband are all close by. Be aware the area has higher-than-average crime levels and sits within a blue-collar terraced neighbourhood; these factors affect tenant demand, yields and future capital growth potential. Viewing is essential to assess condition and layout in person.
