A substantial four-double-bedroom detached house on Leeds Road that offers immediate scope for improvement and strong family potential. The property benefits from a large private rear garden, off‑street parking with an integral single garage, and 12 solar panels which help reduce running costs. Located within easy walking distance of Selby town centre, local schools, and the railway station, it suits families wanting space and connectivity or investors seeking a refurbishment project.
Internally the layout is conventional and well-proportioned with two reception rooms, a kitchen with pantry, and a four-piece family bathroom on the first floor. Two bedrooms have built-in wardrobes. The house is liveable but requires modernisation throughout — the kitchen and bathrooms are dated and flooring, fixtures and finishes will need updating to reach market-leading standards. Buyers should factor renovation costs into their budgets.
Practical details: the property is freehold and will be sold at auction with no onward chain, which can speed completion but requires buyers to be prepared for auction purchase timelines. Council tax is described as expensive. On the positive side, flood risk and crime levels are very low, broadband speeds are fast, and the large plot gives scope to extend or reconfigure subject to consent.
Overall this is a desirable Selby address offering a roomy family home with clear upside for those willing to modernise. It will particularly interest growing families seeking nearby schools and transport links, or buy-to-refurb investors aiming to add value in an affluent, well-connected area.
