Chapel Street, Wath-upon-dearne

GUIDE PRICE £185,000 - £195,000. Set on the well-regarded Chapel Street in Wath Upon Dearne, this well-presented semi-detached home offers far more than first impressions suggest. With a generous garden, well-considered layout, and tasteful internal finishes, it's a property that has clearly been cared for and updated to suit modern needs while retaining a traditional feel. Elevated slightly from the street and with a spacious interior, the house provides a comfortable and stylish setting just a short walk from the centre of Wath, offering both practicality and comfort in equal measure.
The house opens via a side entrance hall, where a spindled staircase leads up to the first floor. The main living room sits to the front of the property, with a bay window drawing in natural light and providing extra floor space, while a striking feature fireplace forms a central focal point. Neutral tones and simple finishes give this space a calm, timeless feel that works with a range of furniture styles.
To the rear, the kitchen has been finished in high gloss cream units with coordinated worktops, offering plenty of storage and workspace. There's a dedicated space for appliances, and the layout has been extended to include a rear dining area with French doors that open directly to the garden. This extra space makes a real difference - ideal for meals, entertaining or just looking out over the garden throughout the seasons.
Upstairs, both bedrooms are doubles, making the house suitable for a range of buyers. The main bedroom features another bay window to the front, echoing the living room below and giving the room more natural light. The second bedroom, currently used as a dressing room, still offers plenty of space for a double bed if needed. The family bathroom has a crisp white three-piece suite, neatly tiled and well maintained.
Externally, the property really comes into its own. The front is neat and low-maintenance, with a pebbled seating area and steps up from pavement level. A side gate opens to a much larger than average rear garden, a standout feature for a property of this type. The garden has been well thought out, with a pebbled patio, a covered outdoor kitchen including a built-in barbecue, a lawn area with established shrub borders, and a further seating space to the rear. It's a garden designed for year-round use and easy upkeep.
Chapel Street itself sits in a quiet, established part of Wath Upon Dearne, a location that's increasingly popular thanks to its blend of convenience and community. Wath town centre is within walking distance, offering a range of local amenities including shops, cafés, takeaways and pharmacies. Larger supermarkets like Tesco and Morrisons are within easy reach too, along with Cortonwood Retail Park just a short drive away for bigger-name stores.
The area is also well served by public transport, with regular bus routes connecting to Rotherham, Barnsley, and Doncaster. Swinton train station is just over a mile away, offering routes to Sheffield and beyond. For drivers, the A633 and A6195 are easily accessible, linking to the M1 and A1 for commuting.
Families will appreciate the choice of schools nearby, with Wath Central Primary School and Wath Academy both well regarded and within walking distance. There are also several parks and green spaces in the area, including Wath Lake and the Trans Pennine Trail for weekend walks or bike rides.
