About this property

Orchard Head Drive

Quote ‘DJ475’ when calling to enquire about this property. Welcome to Orchard Head Drive, an impressive three-bedroom semi-detached home offering approximately 820 sq. ft. (76.2 sq. m.) of thoughtfully arranged accommodation across two floors.

Since purchasing the property, the current owners have undertaken an extensive programme of renovation. The house was taken back to brick, meaning every room has been fully renovated rather than simply redecorated or cosmetically updated. The works include a full electrical rewire, newly fitted kitchen, newly fitted bathroom, new boiler, replacement windows and new external doors.

The agent hasn't said which band this home is in; you can look it up on GOV.UK. In Wakefield, 2026/27 bills run from £1,531 a year in band A to £4,594 in band H.

Figures from MHCLG (Open Government Licence v3): the average bill for each band across Wakefield, including the typical parish precept, so a parish's own bill can differ a little. Discounts lower the bill, such as 25% off for an adult living alone.
