Summary - Knottingley Road, Pontefract WF8 2LD
3 bed 1 bath Bungalow
Approximately 0.75 acre plot with extensive gardens and allotment space
Set on an exceptional approx. 0.75 acre plot on Knottingley Road, this three-bedroom detached bungalow offers rare single-storey living with significant future potential. The layout includes two ground-floor reception rooms plus a conservatory, two ground-floor double bedrooms and a third double bedroom to the first floor, arranged around a generous lounge with a feature fireplace. A detached garage and powered workshop sit beyond a long private driveway with ample off-street parking.
The gardens are a standout: sweeping lawns, established fruit trees, allotment space and room to extend, create an ideal setting for family life, hobbies or small-scale self-sufficiency. The house currently requires renovation and modernisation, so buyers can redesign interiors, add bathrooms or create an annexe or extension (subject to planning permission). The building period (1950s–1960s) gives character but also means services and finishes are dated in places.
Practical advantages include mains gas central heating, double glazing (post-2002), freehold tenure and no onward chain. There is one family bathroom, so additional bathroom provision will be a likely immediate improvement. This property suits families seeking generous outdoor space, buyers wanting a renovation project with development upside, or investors exploring subdivision/annexe possibilities.
Location-wise, the home sits in a sought-after area with nearby amenities, schools (several rated Good), and transport links. Flood risk is low and broadband is fast. Buyers should factor renovation costs and any planning permissions into their proposals, but the combination of plot size and flexible layout delivers strong long-term potential.
