This two-bedroom semi-detached house in Collingham, Leeds, is presented to the market by Renton & Parr. Located on Garth End, the property benefits from being within walking distance of village amenities, a significant plus point for potential buyers.

The property’s exterior, as shown in the photographs, is of traditional brick construction. The garden, while present, appears to be modest in size. The interior photos reveal that the property would benefit from modernisation. The décor is dated throughout, with the kitchen and bathroom appearing particularly in need of updating. The overall condition is acceptable but far from luxurious.

The lack of readily available square footage data for comparable properties makes a precise price per square foot analysis challenging. However, considering nearby property sales and rental data available for nearby streets, such as Compton Road, showing average prices between £233,283, suggests that the asking price of £250,000 is within the realm of expectation. The need for modernisation might make it slightly less desirable than comparable properties in better condition, hence affecting potential buyer demand.

For a family, the proximity to well-regarded schools like Collingham Lady Elizabeth Hastings Church of England Voluntary Aided Primary School (rated ‘Good’ by Ofsted), and the slightly further but still reasonably accessible ‘Outstanding’-rated schools in Wetherby adds considerable value. However, the need for renovations needs to be factored into a potential buyer’s decision. The property would appeal to first-time buyers or those looking for a manageable project. Overall, it’s a reasonable property in a sought-after location, but the age and condition will influence the final sale price.

Therefore, we give this property 5 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
