Set on a modest plot in South Elmsall, this four-bedroom detached house offers well-proportioned living and clear scope to modernise. The ground floor benefits from a bright lounge with a feature fireplace and French doors leading to an enclosed, low-maintenance rear garden. A separate dining room and a practical kitchen provide flexibility for family life or open-plan reconfiguration.
Upstairs are four bedrooms and a single family bathroom. The accommodation is roomy for a growing household but the bathroom and some internal finishes would benefit from updating to meet contemporary standards. The front driveway provides ample off-street parking and there is potential to improve kerb appeal with straightforward landscaping.
Practical advantages include freehold tenure, mains gas central heating, double glazing, excellent mobile signal and fast broadband — useful for working from home. The property sits close to shops, leisure facilities and well-rated local schools, with good rail links to Leeds and Doncaster and easy road access to the A1(M) and M62.
Important considerations: the house is in an area with high crime and very high deprivation levels, and the plot is relatively small. There is only one bathroom for four bedrooms and the property is of an older build era, so buyers should expect some maintenance and modernisation costs. Council tax is very low, which may help running costs.
