Summary - 155, DONCASTER ROAD, BARNSLEY S70 1UF
3 bed 1 bath Terraced
Auction refurbishment project with parking and garden near Barnsley town centre.
Freehold Victorian mid-terrace, three bedrooms over four floors
A three-bedroom Victorian mid-terrace offered as a refurbishment project, sold freehold at online auction on 15 October 2025. The house spreads over four floors with about 872 sq ft of space, a small rear garden and off-street parking — practical features that suit lettings or a compact family home once modernised. Main heating is gas boiler with radiators; glazing is double but installation date is unknown.
This lot is aimed at buyers comfortable with a renovation: the property needs full modernisation and likely cosmetic and systems work. It sits on the fringe of Barnsley town centre with good public transport, nearby schools (several rated Good or Outstanding) and local amenities, which supports rental demand in the area. Council tax is low (Band A) and broadband and mobile signal are strong.
Important sale conditions: this is an unconditional auction lot. On the fall of the hammer the purchaser pays a 5% deposit and a buyers’ premium (5% + VAT, minimum £5,000 + VAT), with contracts exchanged and completion typically required within 28 days. Review the legal pack for special conditions and additional costs before bidding.
Considerations: the wider area is very deprived with high local crime statistics and a significant proportion of private renting and constrained renters. Buyers should allow budget for refurbishment, possible insulation and wall improvements (stone walls, assumed no insulation), and check the legal pack for any other obligations. This is a clear value-opportunity for an investor or hands-on buyer prepared to refurbish and manage short-term works to add value.
