A practical, affordable 3-bedroom semi-detached home with clear potential for first-time buyers seeking a starter property to personalise. The house is offered freehold and chain-free, with searches available upfront to speed a purchase. At about 807 sq ft, the layout is traditional and straightforward, making refurbishment planning simple.
The property does need renovation to reach modern standards; works will likely include modernising finishes and services. Positives include a driveway, single garage and a rear garden with landscaping potential — useful practical assets that many newer homes lack. Gas central heating is in place and the brick construction offers a solid base for improvement.
Location is convenient: local shops, bus routes and primary schools are within walking distance, with easy road access to Sheffield city centre and open spaces like Rother Valley Country Park. Note the wider area shows higher crime rates and local deprivation, and some nearby secondary schools have lower Ofsted ratings, which may influence family buyers.
This house suits a first-time buyer or buyer-investor ready to take on a renovation project and add value. Be realistic about budget and timescales for improvements, and use the available searches and title documents to plan any structural or services work before committing.
