Set on a peaceful elevated street in Skelmanthorpe, this well-presented three-bedroom detached home offers ready-to-move-in accommodation with practical modern finishes. A bright bay-front lounge, a sizeable modern kitchen and a contemporary bathroom suit family life. The long driveway provides ample off-street parking and a low-maintenance rear garden with artificial turf keeps upkeep minimal.
There is clear potential to expand: planning permission for a two-storey extension (granted in 2016) would have added a dining room, larger kitchen, WC and two extra bedrooms. The owners state that permission has lapsed, so anyone wanting the extra space should verify current planning requirements with the local authority.
Practical matters to note: the property dates from the 1930s–40s and has cavity wall construction with no known insulated upgrade, which may affect heating costs. Broadband is reported as very slow in the area, and there is a single family bathroom for three bedrooms. Council tax band is affordable (Band C) and the freehold tenure removes leasehold complexity.
This detached house will suit families seeking a compact, well-located village home with good schools nearby and easy access to local amenities. It will also appeal to buyers wanting a straight-forward property they can personalise, especially if they wish to pursue extension planning afresh.
