Summary - 22 ST HELENS STREET ELSECAR BARNSLEY S74 8BH
2 bed 2 bath Semi-Detached
Affordable two-bedroom home with garden and parking for first-time buyers.
Freehold Victorian semi-detached on a large plot
A compact two-bedroom Victorian semi offering an affordable entry into Elsecar. The house is freehold, set on a larger-than-typical plot with an enclosed rear garden and off-street parking — useful extras for small households or first-time buyers.
Inside, the layout is traditional and space-efficient: a front lounge, breakfast-style kitchen, and two bedrooms served by a modern family bathroom plus a second en-suite. Double glazing and central heating are already fitted, reducing immediate running-cost upgrades.
The property’s small overall footprint (around 383 sq ft) and period character suit buyers wanting a manageable home or renovation project with clear upside from the plot. Practical drawbacks to note: broadband speeds are slow locally, the wider area shows signs of deprivation and average crime levels, and the house may need cosmetic or targeted improvements to maximise value.
Good local schools and regular rail connections make this practical for commuters and families starting out. If you want an affordable, well-located starter home with scope to personalise, this semi-detached house is worth an early viewing.
