This three-bedroom semi-detached house offers practical, well-proportioned accommodation across roughly 1,017 sq ft. The layout includes an entrance porch, two reception rooms, kitchen, three bedrooms and a family bathroom — useful space for a growing household or rental layout. Outside there is gated off-street parking to the front and a larger-than-expected rear garden with patio and outbuilding.
Situated on the fringes of Barnsley town centre, the property is a short walk to shops, transport links and several highly rated schools, making day-to-day life convenient. Broadband speeds are fast and mobile signal is excellent. The tenure is freehold and council tax sits at band A, keeping running costs low.
The house is dated in places and will benefit from modernization to kitchens, bathrooms and decorative finishes; the living room retains mid-century features such as a conventional fireplace. There are no recorded flood risks, but the immediate area records higher-than-average crime and significant local deprivation, which buyers should factor into long-term plans.
This home suits first-time buyers seeking an affordable entry into homeownership or investors targeting refurbishment opportunities close to transport and town amenities. Prospective purchasers are advised to arrange a survey and consider security measures given local crime levels.
