3 bed semi-detached house for sale

Michael Road, Barnsley, South Yorkshire S71

This three-bedroom semi-detached home in Lundwood offers excellent renovation potential, featuring a spacious lounge, kitchen and dining area, family bathroom and front and rear gardens. Ideally suited to first-time buyers, families or investors look

The property presents an excellent opportunity for buyers looking to create a home to their own taste, offering generous living spaces, a practical layout and considerable potential for modernisation. With a spacious lounge, a separate kitchen and dining area and gardens to the front and rear, the property provides a versatile foundation for first-time buyers, growing families or investors seeking a refurbishment project.

The ground floor begins with an entrance hallway leading into a generously proportioned lounge, featuring a large front-facing window that allows natural light to fill the room. A feature fireplace provides a central focal point, while the decorative brick archway creates a distinctive connection to the kitchen and dining area.

The kitchen offers plenty of space for everyday cooking and family dining, with a range of fitted wall and base units, contrasting work surfaces, tiled splashbacks and room for freestanding appliances. Its layout provides scope for buyers to introduce a contemporary kitchen design to suit their requirements.

Upstairs, the first-floor landing provides access to three bedrooms and the family bathroom. The two larger bedrooms offer space for bedroom furniture, with built-in storage cupboards providing additional practicality. The third bedroom could serve as a child's bedroom, nursery, dressing room or dedicated home office, depending on the needs of the household. The family bathroom is fitted with a bath, wash basin and WC.

Although the property would benefit from updating and decorative improvements in several areas, the existing layout offers considerable potential to create a comfortable and personalised family home.

Externally, the property occupies a semi-detached position with a lawned front garden, established boundary hedging and a pathway leading to the entrance.

The enclosed rear garden features paved areas and sections of grass, providing an opportunity for landscaping and the creation of an outdoor seating or entertaining space.

With thoughtful improvements, the outdoor areas could become a valuable extension of the living space, suitable for relaxing, gardening or family activities.

The surrounding areas of Cundy Cross, Monk Bretton and Stairfoot offer further shopping and services, making the location practical for day-to-day living.

For outdoor recreation, Littleworth Park provides accessible green space close to home, while the wider area offers opportunities for walking, cycling and exploring the South Yorkshire countryside. The historic Monk Bretton Priory is another local landmark, and Rabbit Ings Country Park offers open landscapes, wildlife habitats and walking routes within easy reach.
