Large garden, open-plan living, ideal for growing families needing space to adapt.
Five bedrooms with a ground-floor office/bedroom option
This spacious five-bedroom detached property on Pontefract Road offers generous accommodation and a large garden that suits a busy family lifestyle. The open-plan living/kitchen with large windows provides bright communal space for cooking, dining and socialising, while a versatile ground-floor room works well as a home office or bedroom.
Built in the late 1960s–1970s with a stone façade, the house has character and practical features such as double glazing (install date unknown), gas central heating and a garage. Nearby schools rated Good–Outstanding and local amenities make the location convenient for families.
Buyers should note practical drawbacks: the walls are recorded as stone with no assumed insulation, glazing dates are unknown, and the property may benefit from updating or added insulation to improve energy efficiency. The area is classified as deprived with above-average crime levels and higher-than-average council tax — factors to consider for long-term running costs and family security.
Overall, this property suits families seeking generous internal space and an extensive garden with potential to modernise or adapt layout. It will particularly appeal to buyers wanting room to grow and willing to invest in energy-efficiency or cosmetic improvements for future value.
