Summary - 228, Doncaster Road WF1 5DF
3 bed 1 bath Semi-Detached
Ready-to-live three-bed with garage, driveway and low-maintenance garden near Wakefield centre.
Three bedrooms, two with fitted wardrobes
A neatly presented three-bedroom semi-detached home on Doncaster Road, offered freehold and only a short drive from Wakefield city centre. The ground floor has a bright living room, modern kitchen/diner with integrated appliances and a utility room; upstairs are three bedrooms (two with fitted wardrobes) and a family bathroom. Outside there is a driveway, larger-than-average detached garage with power and light, plus low-maintenance artificial lawn and patio for outdoor dining.
This property suits first-time buyers or investors seeking a ready-to-move-in house with scope for cosmetic updating. Key practical points include gas central heating, double glazing (installed post-2002) and an EPC rating of D (64). The plot is a decent size for the area and council tax is in Band A, keeping running costs low.
Be candid about neighbourhood context: the wider area shows higher crime and local deprivation indicators, and the property sits in an urban, privately rented neighbourhood popular with new arrivals. The house was built in the 1930s with cavity walls assumed uninsulated, so buyers wanting higher energy efficiency may consider insulation or further improvements.
An internal inspection is essential to appreciate room proportions and condition. Its combination of parking, garage, modern kitchen and proximity to Sandal & Agbrigg station make it a practical choice for commuting, starters or those buying to let, provided purchasers accept the area profile and potential insulation upgrade work.
