Set on a generous corner plot in Newcastle’s desirable Westlands, this substantial five-bedroom detached house offers roomy family living and far-reaching views across adjacent woodland. The home includes multiple reception rooms, a conservatory, dining kitchen, two good bathrooms and plentiful storage across two storeys — a practical layout for growing families.
Outside, gardens wrap around three sides of the property, mostly lawn with mature shrubbery and fruit trees, plus a paved rear area for entertaining. Two driveways provide easy off-street parking and a double garage with power and lighting adds useful covered storage or workshop space.
The house dates from the late 1960s/early 1970s and shows enormous potential for improvement or extension. While the property is structurally conventional with cavity walls, double glazing and mains gas central heating, many internal areas would benefit from modernization to suit contemporary tastes and energy efficiency expectations.
Practical considerations: there are only two bathrooms for five bedrooms, council tax is high, and glazing install dates are unknown. Buyers seeking a move-in-perfect home may need to budget for updating; investors or growing families will appreciate the room to adapt and increase value. Viewing is recommended to appreciate the plot, layout and scope for extension.
