Practical first home with parking and a generous rear garden.
Newly refreshed two-bedroom semi with open-plan living
A refreshed two-bedroom semi on Furlong Road offers a practical first home or buy-to-let in the Dearne Valley. The ground floor opens to a bright, open-plan living and dining space with a breakfast bar leading to a contemporary gloss kitchen with integrated oven and hob — ready for everyday cooking and simple entertaining. Upstairs there are two well-proportioned bedrooms and a stylish shower room with modern tiling and a heated towel rail.
Practical features include double glazing, mains gas central heating with a boiler and radiators, off-street parking and gated side access. The deep rear garden provides space to play, plant or add a shed or home-office pod; the plot faces good natural light and is easy to maintain.
Location is a strong selling point: everyday amenities around Cortonwood and Manvers, local cafés and gyms, and good schooling nearby make this a convenient family or rental location. Transport links are straightforward via Bolton-upon-Dearne and Goldthorpe rail, regular buses and the Dearne Valley Parkway to the M1/A1(M), helping commuters.
Notable drawbacks are factual and should inform any offer: the plot is small and the front and rear lawns show patchy areas and some external wear to the façade which may need cosmetic attention. Local recorded crime is above average for the area; buyers should consider security and local checks. Council Tax sits in Band A, keeping ongoing costs low.
