Very high local crime; area classified as deprived
This compact one-bedroom terraced stone house is offered chain-free with vacant possession — a straightforward purchase for a first-time buyer or investor. The property benefits from an updated bathroom, a modern fitted kitchen, double glazing and gas central heating, so it is ready to occupy while still offering scope to personalise.
Inside, the living room has period character with a decorative fireplace and Yorkshire stone-style flooring, while the double bedroom upstairs is a generous size for the footprint. A cellar provides useful storage and the small flagged front yard gives a private outdoor seating area. At about 540 sq ft, the layout is efficient for a single occupant or couple.
Practical positives are balanced by notable area and maintenance considerations. The wider neighbourhood is classified as deprived with a very high local crime rate, so buyers should weigh safety and resale factors. The stone exterior is likely uninsulated as built, which could affect heating costs and may need insulation works. The plot is small and the property sits in a densely built area, so outdoor space is limited.
Location is convenient: walking distance to Morley town centre and close to Morley train station, with easy road access to the M1 and M62 and roughly equal drives to Leeds and Wakefield. Council tax is very low and the freehold tenure simplifies ownership. Overall this is a pragmatic, affordable starter home or rental with immediate usability and clear opportunities for targeted improvement.
