This traditional Victorian terrace on Huddersfield Road offers generous space across two double bedrooms and two reception rooms, ideal for first-time buyers seeking character and scope for improvement. High ceilings, original fireplaces and period cornicing give the house immediate charm while the layout feels roomy at around 943 sq ft.
Outside there are large front and rear gardens plus an additional plot providing off-street parking — a rare find for this location. The home is freehold, has mains gas central heating, double glazing (installed before 2002) and an EPC rating of C, keeping running costs reasonable alongside a low council tax (Band B).
Notable practical points: the property dates from before 1900 and external walls are likely uninsulated sandstone/limestone, so consider future wall insulation or retrofit works. The glazing is older and windows may need upgrading over time. There is one family bathroom only, and while the house is presented well, buyers should budget for cosmetic updating or energy-efficiency improvements if desired.
Positioned near Lees village and close to Uppermill’s amenities, the location benefits from good bus links, fast broadband and very low local crime. Nearby primary schools are rated Good; note a local secondary has an Inadequate Ofsted rating. Overall this is a spacious, characterful starter home with clear potential to add value through targeted improvements.
