Summary - 35, IVY LANE, WAKEFIELD WF1 4BB
2 bed 1 bath Semi-Detached
Practical two-bedroom semi with garden and strong commuter links — ideal for first-time buyers or investors.
Two double bedrooms with generous room dimensions
This two-bedroom semi-detached home sits a short distance from Wakefield city centre, offering practical living space for a first-time buyer or investor. The ground floor features a spacious open-plan kitchen/diner that opens to a lawned rear garden and a living room with a generous footprint. Upstairs provides two double bedrooms, a separate W.C. and a fitted bathroom — the layout suits everyday family life or rental use.
The property is structurally conventional post‑war brick construction with double glazing and gas central heating; the Energy Performance Certificate is C73. The house is freehold and benefits from excellent mobile signal, fast broadband and straightforward commuter access to the M1 and M62. Council tax band A keeps running costs low.
Cosmetic updating is required in places — the kitchen and some fixtures are dated and the overall finish would benefit from modernisation. The plot is small and the rear garden is modest but usable, with a paved patio for outdoor dining. Note the local area has higher crime statistics and pockets of social deprivation, which may affect resale or rental demand and should be weighed by buyers or investors.
In short, the property offers solid bones, convenient location and rental or starter-home potential, but expect to budget for refurbishment and consider the local neighbourhood context before committing.
