Spacious 3-bed terrace with garden — ideal for renovators or first-time buyers.
- 3 good-sized bedrooms across multiple storeys
This freehold Victorian mid-terrace offers 950 sq ft of easily adaptable living space across multiple storeys. With three good-sized bedrooms, separate lounge and dining rooms, and a rear garden, the layout suits first-time buyers wanting room to grow or investors seeking a refurbishment project. The property occupies an elevated position on Skelwith Road and benefits from fast broadband and excellent mobile signal.
The house retains period character—brick façade, fireplace and high ceilings in parts—but requires modernization throughout. Windows, kitchen and bathroom are functional but dated; cosmetic and systems upgrades will improve comfort and value. On-street parking and a small rear garden add everyday convenience, while Council Tax Band A keeps running costs low.
Location is practical for daily life: local shops, bus routes and a cluster of primary and secondary schools are within easy reach. However, the surrounding area is classified as very deprived with a high local crime rate; buyers should factor that into resale and rental expectations. This property suits a buyer prepared to invest time and money to modernise and capitalise on its size and period appeal.
For buyers after a ready-to-move-in home, this will need some work. For renovators and first-time purchasers willing to improve the property, it represents a competitively priced opportunity in S4 with strong connectivity and nearby amenities.
