This two-bedroom mid-terrace, offered freehold and sold at auction, presents clear upside for investors or hands-on owner-occupiers prepared to refurbish. The property extends to around 911 sq ft over two floors and includes a garden, boiler-heated radiators, and double glazing (install date unknown).
The house requires renovation throughout: the bathroom shows mould and dated/worn finishes, and walls are solid brick with no insulation assumed. Practical positives include a modern-feel kitchen, mains gas heating, and an EPC rating of D, but buyers should budget for improvement works and potential insulation upgrades.
Location is convenient for Barnsley town centre, schools, and transport links with easy M1 access. Note the area has very high crime rates and high deprivation, and the plot is very small with on-street parking only. The property is sold as seen at auction — buyers must register, review the legal pack, and allow for the £3,600 administration fee on exchange.
This is a straightforward refurbishment/refurbishment-to-let opportunity: price and size give scope to add value, but factor in repair costs, safety checks, and potential planning or compliance requirements before bidding.
