This two-bedroom mid-terrace in Smithies, Barnsley offers a practical, move-in-ready option for a first-time buyer. The layout includes an entrance lounge, downstairs WC, kitchen, two double bedrooms and a family bathroom, all within a modest 636 sq ft. A low-maintenance enclosed rear garden and patio extend usable space outdoors.
Services and connectivity are strong for the price: mains gas central heating with boiler and radiators, double glazing, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal. The property is freehold, sits in a popular residential pocket close to primary schools rated Good, and carries no flood risk.
Buyers should note the home’s mid-20th century construction (c.1950–66) with cavity walls assumed to be uninsulated, and some dated features that may benefit from updating. The area is classed as deprived with average crime levels and a small plot size — factors that may affect resale and rental appeal. Overall, this is a sensible starter purchase with clear scope for value-adding improvements.
