Summary - 709 CLECKHEATON ROAD OAKENSHAW BRADFORD BD12 7BB
3 bed 1 bath Terraced
Affordable starter home close to station and green space.
Stone-built Victorian through-terrace with original period features
A stone-built Victorian through-terrace with three bedrooms, this property offers period character and clear scope to add value. High ceilings, original fireplace and a basement give practical space and charm, while a small gated front garden provides outdoor access. The house needs refurbishment — cosmetic and likely thermal upgrades — so it suits buyers willing to invest time and budget.
Well placed for commuters, the home is close to Low Moor station, motorway links and local shops, with Victoria Park and a nature reserve within easy reach. Practical benefits include mains gas central heating, double glazing (installed before 2002) and fast broadband and mobile signal. Council tax is very low.
This is a straightforward opportunity for first-time buyers wanting an affordable family home or investors looking for a buy-to-let in a popular BD12 pocket. Be mindful of material points: the property dates from before 1900, external walls are likely uninsulated sandstone/limestone, the EPC is D and some modernisation will be required to improve energy performance and comfort. Viewing is advised to assess renovation scope and costs.
The surrounding area is classified as deprived and blue-collar terraces, with average crime statistics; that reduces purchase cost but should be considered for long-term tenant demand or resale. Overall, the house offers strong potential for value uplift after targeted refurbishment, especially given transport links and local amenities.
