Guide Price £240,000 - £250,000

There is an immediately welcoming feel to this home; warm, stylish and clearly designed around everyday life. Set within the established residential neighbourhood of Wheatley Hills, it offers the character and proportions of a traditional home alongside a layout that feels wonderfully suited to modern family life.

From quiet evenings in the characterful lounge to busy mornings around the breakfast bar and long summer evenings spilling out into the garden, the house has a natural flow that makes it equally comfortable for everyday living and having friends and family over.

Step inside and the lounge sets the tone beautifully. Warm wooden flooring and an exposed-brick fireplace give the room real personality, creating a cosy retreat away from the more sociable spaces at the rear. It is easy to picture winter evenings here with the fire lit, or simply closing the doors and settling down for a film at the end of the day.

The open-plan kitchen and dining space is undoubtedly the heart of the home.

Extending to approximately 18'2", it is a wonderfully sociable room with Shaker-style cabinetry, wooden work surfaces, integrated cooking appliances and a breakfast bar – the natural spot for morning coffee, homework after school or chatting over a glass of wine while dinner is cooking.

Alongside it, there is plenty of room for a proper dining table, while the generous glazing overlooking the garden fills the space with natural light and creates a lovely connection between indoors and out.

Whether it is a slow Sunday breakfast, Christmas with the family or opening everything up for a summer barbecue, this is the kind of space that naturally becomes the centre of life at home.

Adding another layer of practicality is the cellar, providing approximately 110 sq ft of additional space. Currently incorporating a WC and separate utility area with laundry appliances, storage and worktop space, it keeps the practical side of family life neatly away from the main living accommodation; a genuinely useful addition that frees up valuable space elsewhere in the home.

Upstairs are three bedrooms, including two particularly well-proportioned doubles.
The principal bedroom is a calm and comfortable space, with a wide bay-style window bringing in plenty of natural light. The second double enjoys a pleasant outlook towards the rear, while the third bedroom is currently arranged as a child's room and would work equally well as a nursery, dressing room or dedicated home office.

A contemporary family bathroom completes the first floor, fitted with a bath and shower above, vanity basin and WC.

A garden to enjoy, not just look at
Outside, the home continues to deliver on the lifestyle it offers.

The rear garden provides a combination of lawn, mature planting and a separate paved seating area, creating distinct spaces for different parts of the day. There is room for children to play, somewhere for the barbecue when friends come over and a more relaxed spot to sit outside with a morning coffee or glass of wine.

A detached brick-built garage provides further practical space for parking, bikes, hobbies and additional storage.

Life in Wheatley Hills
One of the biggest attractions of this home is everything available beyond its front door.

Wheatley Hills has become a particularly popular choice for families and young professionals because it offers that useful balance between residential surroundings and proximity to Doncaster city centre. Everyday shopping, supermarkets and the wider retail facilities around Wheatley Hall Road are within easy reach, while Doncaster Royal Infirmary is also nearby.

For families, or simply anyone who values having green space close to home, Sandall Park is a real local asset. The Green Flag park offers a lake, woodland and wildlife areas alongside recreational facilities, giving you somewhere nearby for weekend walks, running, cycling or getting outside with the children.

It is also very much part of the local community, hosting Saturday 5k parkrun, Sunday junior parkrun and a programme of family and community activities throughout the year, including seasonal events.

The wider area also provides access to Town Fields, Sandall Beat Wood, local sports facilities and Doncaster Racecourse, while the city centre's restaurants, bars, leisure and cultural amenities remain conveniently accessible.

Schools nearby
The location provides a choice of education options across the surrounding area, including Park Primary School, which is rated Good by Ofsted.
For secondary education, Outwood Academy Danum on Armthorpe Road was also rated Good following its Ofsted inspection in May 2024.

Other primary and nursery provision can be found throughout Wheatley and Wheatley Hills, including childcare provision on Adlard Road itself.
(School admissions, catchment areas and current Ofsted ratings should always be checked independently with the relevant school, local authority and Ofsted.)

Connected for work and weekends
For buyers commuting beyond Doncaster, the location works equally well.
Doncaster railway station is easily accessible, providing direct rail services towards destinations including Sheffield, Leeds, York and London King's Cross, while road links via the M18 and A1(M) provide straightforward access across South Yorkshire and the wider motorway network.

That connectivity makes Wheatley Hills particularly practical for professionals who may work elsewhere but still want the space and lifestyle of an established Doncaster neighbourhood.
And that is ultimately what makes this home so appealing.

A characterful lounge for quieter evenings. A generous kitchen/diner where everyone naturally comes together. Two excellent double bedrooms and a versatile third. A basement that takes care of the practical side of life. A proper garden with room to play and entertain, and the additional benefit of a detached garage.

Combine all of that with parks, schools, amenities and excellent connectivity close by, and this is a home that could suit a growing family just as comfortably as professionals looking for somewhere they can put down roots.
