This two-bedroom end-terrace on Borrowdale Drive offers a practical, affordable home in Castleford with off-street parking and a private rear garden. The ground floor features a spacious through living room with separate seating and dining areas and a fitted galley-style kitchen with integrated oven and breakfast bar. Upstairs are two good-sized bedrooms with built-in storage and a three-piece family bathroom. The property is freehold and move-in ready for many buyers.
Transport links and local amenities are strong selling points: nearby motorway access, Castleford train and bus stations, shopping at Junction 32, and leisure facilities such as Xscape. The area has schools within easy reach, including an outstanding primary and a local secondary school. Mains gas central heating, double glazing and a boiler with radiators provide practical heating and energy arrangements.
Buyers should note important context about location and condition. The wider area rates as very deprived with higher-than-average local crime, which may concern some purchasers and affect resale values. The EPC is rated D; the double glazing install date is unknown. The plot is modest in size and the house was built in the 1950s–1960s, so some buyers may want to check for age-related maintenance or modernisation needs.
Overall this property suits first-time buyers or investors seeking a compact, well-located home with immediate rental or owner-occupier potential. It benefits from low council tax (Band A) and straightforward, everyday family accommodation, while buyers sensitive to neighbourhood safety or seeking larger grounds may prefer to look elsewhere.
