This well-proportioned three-bedroom Victorian mid-terrace in Castleton offers an affordable step onto the property ladder. The house is offered chain free and sits within walking distance of the train station, making commutes to Manchester and Leeds straightforward. Interiors include two open-plan reception rooms, a rear conservatory and a generous four-piece family bathroom — practical layout for first-time buyers or young families.
Period features such as a bay window and standard high ceilings add character, while uPVC double glazing and gas central heating provide modern convenience. The low-maintenance paved yard is easy to manage and extends living space in warmer months. At roughly 898 sq ft the property is average-sized and suits buyers seeking a sensible family home rather than large living spaces.
The house is leasehold and located in an area classified as deprived; buyers should factor this into financing and resale plans. Some rooms are modest in size and the property will benefit from cosmetic updating in places — a good opportunity for buyers wanting to add value through improvement. Council tax is very low and local crime is very low, which helps running costs and peace of mind.
Nearby schooling includes several primary and secondary options with mixed Ofsted outcomes; St Edward’s and Marland Hill are rated Good, while a nearby secondary has an Inadequate rating. Early viewing is recommended to appreciate the layout and potential before it’s taken off the market.
