Set on a popular Gleadless Townend street, this 1930s semi offers a straightforward, chain-free purchase and vacant possession — ideal for a first-time buyer wanting to add value. The house retains period character such as bay windows and a feature fireplace, while providing practical benefits including off-road parking, a large garage with workshop space, and an enclosed rear garden.
The layout is traditional and compact: a lounge with bay window, open-plan kitchen-diner, three bedrooms and a single tiled bathroom. At about 696 sq ft the house is on the smaller side, so it suits buyers seeking a manageable family home or a starter property rather than maximum living space. The property needs renovation and modernization throughout, giving a buyer scope to reconfigure, update fixtures, and increase value.
Location is a genuine selling point. Local amenities, regular bus links and quick access to St James Retail Park and the M1 make daily life convenient; reputable primary and secondary schools are within catchment. Broadband and mobile signal are strong, and council tax is very cheap, which helps running costs.
Buyers should note material negatives: the property requires updating (kitchen, bathroom and likely decor), it has only one bathroom, and the wider area reports higher crime levels. These facts, combined with the small overall floor area, mean buyers should budget for renovation and consider security improvements. For someone prepared to invest time and money, this chain-free freehold offers clear potential to create a comfortable, modern home in a well-connected neighbourhood.
