A period mid-terrace with practical extensions and a detached garage, this two-bedroom home suits first-time buyers or small families seeking affordable entry to Wakefield’s fringe. The house retains Victorian character externally and has sensible modern comforts inside, including double glazing (install date unknown) and gas central heating via boiler and radiators.
Ground-floor living is organised into a front living room, separate dining room and a kitchen extension to the rear, creating flexible reception space. The upper floor offers a double main bedroom, a second extended bedroom and a smaller third room currently used as a dressing/study area. The flagged courtyard garden is low-maintenance and a detached garage plus access road provide private parking — a rare practical perk in older terraces.
There are some important practical matters to note. The property’s solid brick walls are assumed to be uninsulated, which could increase heating costs and may need addressing for long-term comfort and efficiency. Double glazing is present but the installation date is unknown, and services/appliances have not been tested — buyers should commission a survey and service checks. Council tax is very low and local crime is low, making running costs attractive.
Location is favourable for commuters with the M62 (J31) reachable in around ten minutes, and local amenities, shops and several schools within easy reach. Broadband speeds are fast and mobile signal is excellent, supporting home working or streaming. Overall this is a straightforward, affordable Victorian terrace with scope to improve energy performance and personalise finishes.
