Description

This end-of-terrace property represents a promising investment opportunity, ideal for those looking to renovate and capitalize on rental potential. Currently configured with two main rooms and a designated bathroom space on the ground floor, as well as two additional rooms and another bathroom area on the first floor, this property also features an attic room that offers further development options. The groundwork has already been laid for conversion into two separate apartments, supported by planning permission (reference 2022/0569) available through Barnsley Council's website. Its strategic location on Sheffield Road places it within easy reach of Barnsley Town Centre, ensuring excellent access to amenities and transport links for future tenants. Once renovated, each unit could command rents in the range of £700-£750 per month, projecting a combined annual return of approximately £18,000 — an attractive yield for investors. This freehold property is currently rated EPC F and falls under Council Tax Band A, providing a solid foundation for transformative improvements.
