This three-bedroom Victorian semi-detached house on Bentley Road offers generous living space across four storeys and retains original character features such as bay windows and cornices. The layout includes two reception rooms, a split-level kitchen, a cellar for substantial storage, and a private rear garden with rear access and a carport/garage area — useful for those needing storage or off-street parking.
The property is a sensible purchase for a family or buyer seeking a remodel project. Rooms are bright with large windows, and the loft room adds flexible space. Nearby schools include an Outstanding primary and several Good-rated secondaries; local shops, bistros and Bentley train station are within easy reach, supporting commuting to Doncaster and beyond.
There are clear practical issues to consider: the house dates from the early 1900s and has solid brick walls likely without cavity insulation, so improving thermal performance will be needed. The area shows higher crime levels and is in a deprived district, and the plot is modest in size. The accommodation requires some modernisation to update decor, services and energy efficiency.
For buyers wanting character with scope to add value, this property is a workable blank canvas. It will suit those prepared to invest time or money to modernise and insulate, while benefiting from convenient transport links and private outdoor space.
