A period detached property currently configured as four self-contained one‑bedroom apartments, offered for sale by Modern Method of Auction. Each flat has an open‑plan living kitchen, bedroom and shower room, UPVC double glazing and mains gas central heating; there is a cellar, side driveway providing off‑street parking and easy walking distance to Wakefield Kirkgate station and city centre amenities.
This lot suits investors seeking an income-producing building or a short-term refurbishment project. EPCs vary across the flats (two C70/C76, one E52) — one unit may need energy improvements. The property shows signs of damp in the kitchen area and dates from the early 20th century, so expect periodic maintenance and possible further works to modernise finishes and services.
Important sale details: the sale is by auction with an undisclosed reserve, a non‑refundable reservation fee payable on exchange (4.5% subject to minimum), and buyer’s fees apply. Viewings and a full inspection are recommended; confirm tenancy status and rental income prior to bidding.
The building occupies a large plot in a busy urban area with mixed local amenities and transport links. Note the immediate locality has higher crime statistics and area deprivation indicators, which may affect tenant demand and rental levels; council tax band is low (A), reflecting running cost benefits.
