Large garden and planning permissions create strong renovation and development potential.
Victorian stone end-terrace with original character features
A stone-built Victorian semi in sought-after Skelmanthorpe, this end-terrace offers a hands-on renovation with substantial grounds. Approved planning permissions for a single-storey extension and solar panels mean you can extend living space and improve sustainability straight away. The property also benefits from approved permission to erect a detached dwelling (No 11a) within the grounds — a clear development opportunity for a buyer seeking value-add potential.
Inside, rooms are characterful but dated: original stone walls, fireplaces and built-in shelving provide a strong period feel, while the current layout and finishes require comprehensive updating. The house is currently two/three bedrooms with one bathroom, so the extension permission could deliver significantly more functional living space for a growing family. Note the EPC rating of E and assumed solid stone walls with no insulation — upgrading thermal performance will be a sensible early investment.
The plot is a major asset. A decent, substantial garden offers private outdoor space and scope for landscaping or further building, while the village setting places countryside walks, good schools and local amenities within easy reach. Broadband speeds are fast and mobile signal is excellent, supporting modern home working and connectivity.
This property suits buyers comfortable managing a renovation or investors/developers looking to capitalise on permitted development. Expect a project requiring time and budget to modernise heating, insulation and interior finishes, but with clear permissions in place that reduce planning uncertainty and unlock tangible value.
