This two-bedroom terraced house in Armley, Leeds, presents a mixed bag. The property’s location is a definite strength; it’s within reasonable distance of local schools, shops and transport links offering accessibility to the wider city of Leeds. The nearby train stations provide convenient commutes. While the proximity to amenities is a significant advantage for prospective buyers, notably families, the lack of garden space is a major drawback. This may reduce the property’s appeal to those seeking outdoor space.

In terms of condition, the property appears habitable, but could benefit from some modernization. The kitchen and bathroom show some updates, but the remainder of the property shows a functional but dated style that would likely benefit from an update to suit contemporary expectations. The images show a property that is not in disrepair, but would require some renovation to fully realize its potential and to meet modern standards. For the prospective homeowner, this is reflected in the potential for further enhancement and investment.

The list price of £140,000 requires further assessment given the limited information available about plot size and the current market. Comparing this to nearby property sales, particularly two-bedroom terraced houses, suggests the price falls within a competitive range for the area, albeit the absence of key details such as square footage on nearby properties limits a completely accurate assessment. However, the limited garden space and the general condition of the property compared to those that have been recently renovated would affect the value perceived by a prospective homeowner. Overall, this property offers a relatively affordable entry point into the Leeds housing market, primarily suitable for first-time buyers or investors, provided they are willing to undertake some improvements.

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