Set on a quiet cul-de-sac and backing onto open fields, this three-bedroom detached home offers practical family living within easy reach of Wakefield. The living room and kitchen/diner are bright and well-proportioned for a property of 702 sq ft, with French doors that open onto a mainly west-facing garden for afternoon and evening sun.
Recent upgrades include new windows and doors (circa 2–3 years) and a newly fitted combi boiler (2024) paired with a Tadoo smart thermostat, reducing immediate heating concerns. External parking is strong for the area: a gravel driveway for multiple vehicles and a garage with power and lighting. Local schools are close by and bus links provide easy access into Wakefield.
Practical drawbacks are straightforward: the overall home and plot are small, with a single family bathroom serving three bedrooms. The wider area records above-average crime levels, which buyers should consider. Construction dates (late 1970s–early 1980s) and unspecified dates for double glazing mean buyers should commission standard surveys and appliance/service checks before exchange.
Overall this property suits first-time buyers or young families wanting a low-maintenance, well-located starter home with immediate heating upgrades and outdoor space. Viewing is recommended to assess room sizes and the garden orientation in person.
