This chain-free, two-bedroom semi-detached house on Barnsley Road offers an affordable entry into Wath-upon-Dearne with a long lease (654 years) and vacant possession. The property has been partly refurbished, giving buyers a usable, modern space now with clear scope to personalise and improve. Its size and layout suit first-time buyers, small families, downsizers, or buy-to-let investors.
Ground floor living is bright with a modern kitchen/dining area ideal for everyday family life and casual entertaining. Upstairs provides two well-proportioned bedrooms and a contemporary family bathroom; a converted loft adds usable space for a home office, hobby room, or storage. Gardens to the front and rear extend living space outdoors and give room for gardening or a seating area.
Practical benefits include mains gas central heating, double glazing (post-2002), fast broadband, and very low council tax. The location is convenient — a short drive or walk to shops, bars, restaurants, and regular public transport links. Nearby schools include several rated Good, though one primary and one secondary show lower inspection outcomes.
Notable considerations: the property is leasehold (654 years remaining) rather than freehold, and the refurbishment is partial — further updating or finishing may be desired. Crime levels are average for the area. Overall this home presents good value at the asking price for buyers prepared to add some finishing touches or for investors seeking a straightforward let in a well-connected community.
