Summary -
12 Berners Street,WAKEFIELD,WF1 4DY
WF1 4DY
5 bed 2 bath Terraced
Chain-free auction lot with strong immediate rental income potential.
Five double bedrooms across multiple floors
A substantial five-double-bedroom Victorian terrace arranged over multiple levels, offered chain free and sold at auction — designed for investors seeking immediate rental return. The property currently produces approximately £16,000 per year, giving an indicated yield around 10% on the guide price. Layout includes two kitchens and two bathrooms, supporting multi-occupancy or HMO conversion possibilities.
Positioned close to Wakefield city centre, local hospitals and commuter links, the house benefits from excellent mobile signal and fast broadband — practical for lettings. Period features such as bay windows, chimneys and loft conversions add character and appeal to tenants; there are small front and rear gardens and a modest overall footprint suited to urban rental demand.
Buyers should note material considerations: the area is classified as very deprived with very high recorded crime, the property’s EPC is D and the tenure is not specified. It is sold at auction with photographs dated November 2025, and services and boundaries have not been tested or verified. Prospective purchasers should commission surveys and legal checks before bidding.
For an investor prepared to manage location-specific risks and carry out any necessary remedial works, this terrace offers clear income potential and flexible internal layout that could be enhanced further through refurbishment or reconfiguration for higher-yield use.
