Set on a popular street in Allerton Bywater, this traditional two-bedroom semi offers a sensible starter home or buy-to-let opportunity. The house is freehold with off-street parking, a front and enclosed rear garden, and a compact layout that suits first-time buyers or investors seeking straightforward refurbishment.
The interior retains mid-century character but requires updating — the kitchen and bathroom are dated and the property is described as needing renovation. EPC rated E, so expect energy improvements to increase comfort and running costs. Rooms are well-proportioned with two double bedrooms and a full-depth living/dining room that benefits from good natural light.
Outside, the small front garden and larger enclosed rear garden provide useful private outdoor space plus an outbuilding for storage. The driveway fits multiple vehicles, a practical advantage in this area. Local amenities, schools and countryside are all close by, with good transport links to Castleford and Leeds.
Practical facts: council tax band A means low ongoing local tax, and the property is freehold. However, the local crime level is noted as high and the house will need time and budget to modernise heating efficiency and internal finishes. For buyers who value location and potential over immediate turnkey condition, this property presents clear scope to add value.
