3 bed 1 bath End of Terrace
Affordable three-bed Victorian terrace with renovation potential and reduced price for roof works.
Freehold Victorian end-terrace with period character
Price reduced to reflect necessary roof repair or replacement
Needs renovation throughout; opportunity to add value
Small, enclosed rear garden; overgrown, requires maintenance
Mains gas boiler and radiators; double glazing pre-2002
EPC D (60); solid brick walls likely without insulation
Central location with fast broadband and excellent mobile signal
Higher-than-average local crime and area deprivation noted
This three-bedroom end-terrace in central Selby offers an affordable entry into homeownership with clear potential for value uplift. Built c.1900–1929, the solid brick Victorian shell gives scope for cosmetic and energy-efficiency improvements; the asking price has been reduced to reflect required roof repairs (quotes obtained).
Internally the traditional layout provides a generous lounge, separate dining/study, kitchen with appliances and a ground-floor shower room. Two double bedrooms plus a single bedroom upstairs suit a young family or first-time buyers wanting extra space for a home office. Mains gas boiler and radiators provide central heating; double glazing is present but was installed before 2002.
Outside is a small, enclosed rear garden — private and low-maintenance but overgrown and in need of tidying. There is nearby modest parking and a central location with fast FTTC broadband and excellent mobile signal, close to local shops, sports facilities and several ‘Good’ and one ‘Outstanding’ nearby schools.
Be transparent about the negatives: the property needs renovation and the roof requires repair or replacement (price adjusted accordingly). The area shows signs of deprivation and crime levels are higher than average, which may affect some buyers. EPC rating D and assumed solid brick walls with little insulation mean energy upgrades will be worthwhile investments.
Overall this freehold house suits first-time buyers or small families prepared to invest modest renovation work for a well-located home with long-term upside.
