This three-bedroom end terrace on Doncaster Road offers an affordable entry into Rotherham with practical essentials already in place. The house benefits from mains gas central heating, UPVC double glazing and a generous rear garden — a rarity at this price point. At about 685 sq ft across two storeys, the layout suits first-time buyers or landlords looking for a straightforward let.
The property is solid-brick Victorian construction and appears well maintained externally, with a modern-looking kitchen and usable living spaces. Broadband speeds are reported as fast and mobile signal excellent, which helps for home working or tenants. The long lease (884 years remaining) removes a common leasehold concern and council tax is very cheap, helping running costs.
There are some material points to note. Internal rooms are generally small and the house’s solid walls are likely uninsulated, so heating bills could be higher than for newer builds unless upgraded. The local area is described as very deprived with above-average crime; buyers should consider local services and suitability for families. The property has a single bathroom and will suit those who do not need larger living spaces or who plan modest refurbishment.
Overall this is a pragmatic, value-focused opportunity for a first-time buyer wanting a garden and traditional character, or an investor seeking a low-entry rental in a well-connected part of Rotherham. Viewings are recommended to assess room sizes and scope for insulation or cosmetic updates.
