Description
Situated in a popular and well-established residential area of Wakefield, this spacious two-bedroom semi-detached home was originally constructed as a three-bedroom property and has since been reconfigured to create a larger principal bedroom. The layout could be reinstated to three separate bedrooms, subject to any necessary works and consents.
The accommodation briefly comprises an entrance hall, generous living room with direct access to the rear garden, contemporary kitchen breakfast room and ground floor WC. To the first floor are two well-proportioned bedrooms — including a substantial principal bedroom formed by combining two original rooms — and a modern shower room. Externally, the property benefits from off-street parking to the front and an enclosed, low-maintenance rear garden with paved patio areas suitable for seating and outdoor use.
Magdalene Road is located to the south of Wakefield city centre, offering convenient access to a range of local amenities including shops, supermarkets, schools and healthcare facilities. A wider selection of retail, leisure and dining options can be found in Wakefield city centre, along with rail services from Wakefield Westgate railway station and Wakefield Kirkgate railway station. The property is also well positioned for access to the M1 motorway network, supporting travel to Leeds, Sheffield and surrounding areas.
