Chain free sale freehold at £187,500
Offered chain free at £187,500, this three-bedroom semi-detached home is a practical choice for growing families seeking space and good local schools in Pontefract. The layout includes a front living room, kitchen/diner with adjoining utility, three bedrooms, a shower room plus separate WC, and an enclosed rear garden — sensible family basics with immediate occupancy potential.
The property sits on a decent plot with a driveway for off-street parking and benefits from freehold tenure, fast broadband and no flood risk. Two nearby primary schools and several secondary schools have Good Ofsted ratings, and local shops and bus links are within easy reach, supporting everyday family life and commutes.
The house shows mid-20th century character but will suit buyers prepared to update. The living room has a dated fireplace and signs of corner mould; some internal refurbishment and redecoration are likely. The wider area is classified as deprived/industrious hardship with an ‘endeavouring social renters’ local profile and average crime levels — factors to weigh for long-term value or resale.
Overall, this chain-free, freehold home offers a straightforward, affordable route into Pontefract’s market with clear potential for improvement. It will appeal to families wanting space near schools or investors seeking a lettable asset after modest refurbishment.
