A three-bedroom mid-terrace offered for sale by Modern Auction with no upper chain. The property is freehold, sits on a decent plot with off-street parking and a rear garden, and extends to about 808 sqft. It has gas central heating, UPVC double glazing and a traditional layout across two storeys.
The house requires renovation and cosmetic modernisation throughout — internal photos show unfinished surfaces and dated fittings. Buyers should factor in refurbishment costs; the property is suitable for an investor, developer or buyer willing to carry out works to improve living standards and value.
Sale is via a modern auction route: an undisclosed reserve price applies and a non-refundable reservation fee (4.5% of the purchase price, minimum £6,600 inc. VAT) plus buyer fees will be payable. The transaction requires completion within 56 days and buyers must provide ID and funding evidence — confirm exact costs before bidding.
Location strengths include proximity to Wakefield city centre amenities, several nearby primary and secondary schools rated Good, fast broadband and a front driveway. Note the local context: the area is classified as very deprived with higher crime levels, which may affect buyer and tenant demand and resale value.
