A traditional two-bedroom mid-terrace in central Barnsley, positioned a short walk from town centre amenities, transport links and local schools. The layout is straightforward: front lounge, kitchen, bathroom and two first-floor bedrooms, plus a small rear courtyard for low-maintenance outdoor space.
The house is offered with clear refurbishment needs — cosmetic updating, modernising of services and possibly insulation improvements — so it suits buyers prepared to invest. Property construction dates to the early 20th century with stone walls that are likely uninsulated and double glazing fitted before 2002; some energy-efficiency work may be required to reach contemporary standards.
This is a practical buy-to-let or renovation project for investors and first-time buyers wanting an affordable entry into Barnsley’s rental market. The compact rooms and small plot limit extensions, but the central location and strong local tenant demand mean the property can deliver rental income after refurbishment. Council tax is very low, and broadband and mobile signal are good — useful for both tenants and owner-occupiers.
Buyers should budget for updating heating, electrics if needed, cosmetic repairs and wall insulation. The property is sold freehold and presents clear upside for someone able to carry out improvement works to increase comfort, energy efficiency and rental value.
