Bradford Road, Wakefield, West Yorkshire, WF1

Welcome to your next chapter! If you have been searching for a grand, period-rich family residence that blends timeless Victorian elegance with fantastic future growth potential, then this magnificent 4/5-bedroom, 3-story semi-detached home on Bradford Road, Wakefield is one you must see.

Spanning over 165.8 m² across three levels, this red-brick period gem has recently benefited from a new roof (2022), a top-floor dormer extension creating two double bedrooms and a bathroom, plus granted planning permission for a cellar conversion—offering an exciting opportunity to add even more habitable square footage!

The Tour

The Ground Floor:

Step through the practical entrance into an incredible Entrance Hallway featuring original geometric mosaic tiled flooring, archway detailing, and a classic cast-iron radiator.

To your left sits the formal Living Room. Bathed in natural light from a deep bay window fitted with blinds, this elegant room boasts rich magenta tones, high ceilings with a decorative ceiling rose, picture rails, and a carved timber fireplace mantle. Adjacent sits a generous Dining Room centered around a feature fireplace.

Continuing down the hallway brings you to the Kitchen fitted with warm cabinetry, white solid worktops and a small breakfast bar setup for two stools. The kitchen has a selection of built in appliances and has space for a free standing fridge/freezer. This leads through to a bright Utility Room complete with skylights, Yorkshire Stone flooring, extra laundry space, and an adjoining ground-floor WC with tongue-and-groove paneling.

The Lower Ground Floor:

Doorway access from the kitchen leads down to two dedicated Cellar Rooms. Future buyers can transform this space into a home cinema, office or self-contained guest suite if they wanted as we have seen done at neighbouring properties. A good space to add additional living space to this already vast home. 

The First Floor:

Heading up the carpeted staircase to the middle landing, you'll find three bedrooms and a large main bathroom:

Bedroom 1: A generous double room featuring an ornate white fireplace with decorative tile surrounds, twin windows, picture rails, and built-in white wardrobes.

Bedroom 2: Currently configured as a games room, this is a large double bedroom overlooking the rear aspect of the property.

Bedroom 5 / Office: Positioned to the front and currently styled as a quiet study nook. This was the original homes 3rd bedroom. 

The Family Bathroom: A vast, boutique-style bathroom suite featuring a deep tiled-surround bath, a large curved glass shower cubicle, floating vanity sink with mirrors and downlighting and travertine wall tiling.

The Second Floor (Dormer Extension):

Recently extended into the roof space to create two further light-filled double bedrooms and a second modern bathroom:

Bedroom 3: A spacious double room featuring dual Velux roof skylights and grey plush carpeting.

Bedroom 4: A fourth double room with a wide dormer window offering elevated views over the surrounding neighborhood.

Top Floor Bathroom: A second stylish shower room complete with grey metro-tiled walk-in shower, Velux skylight, WC, and patterned floor.

Step Outside:

The property commands an impressive street presence with a paved front driveway behind double wrought-iron gates, offering off-road parking for multiple vehicles. To the rear, a well proportioned, fully enclosed garden features a level lawn ideal for kids and pets, a raised stone-flagged sun terrace directly off the utility room, a gravelled BBQ seating area, garden shed storage, and high brick/timber boundaries for complete privacy.
