Summary - 23 BLENHEIM AVENUE BARNSLEY S70 6AZ
2 bed 1 bath Terraced
Two-bedroom Victorian terrace close to town — ideal for investors or first-time buyers ready to renovate.
Two-bedroom Victorian mid-terrace, freehold
A traditional two-bedroom mid-terrace Victorian home on Blenheim Avenue, offered freehold and conveniently close to Barnsley town centre. The property presents a straightforward rental or starter-home opportunity: two first-floor bedrooms, a ground-floor lounge, kitchen and a bathroom with separate shower and bath. Public transport links and local amenities are within easy reach, and nearby schools include several rated Good or Outstanding.
Internally the house is serviceable but dated. Fixtures and finishes are mid-20th century in style, with some signs of age and a noted mould risk in the living room area; buyers should expect cosmetic refurbishment and updating of heating/electrical elements as required. The solid-brick walls likely lack modern cavity insulation, so energy-efficiency improvements would be a sensible early investment.
Outside space is limited to a small rear yard. The plot size and compact room proportions make this easiest to manage for a buy-to-let investor or a first-time buyer seeking an affordable, central location to improve over time. The area has high crime levels and sits within a very deprived local classification, which will influence tenant demand and resale considerations.
This property suits a buyer prepared to invest in modernisation to lift rental value or create a comfortable starter home. Clear potential exists to increase energy performance, refresh interiors and add value, but purchasers should budget for remedial works and obtain survey reports before committing.
