Affordable entry in a convenient North Shields location with long lease.
Two bedrooms and reception room in a ground-floor Victorian flat
A compact ground-floor Victorian flat offering straightforward, affordable living on Chirton West View. The two-bedroom layout and reception room suit first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors seeking a low-entry property in North Shields. The long lease (967 years) and very low council tax reduce holding costs, while double glazing and mains gas central heating provide practical comfort.
The flat sits in a mid-terrace period building with original character and high ceilings, but it needs modernisation throughout to reach its full potential. Internal walls are likely solid brick with no added insulation, so upgrading thermal performance could be a sensible investment. The rear yard is small yet useful for drying or a bit of outdoor space.
Location strengths include fast broadband, excellent mobile signal and proximity to local shops, schools rated Good, and regular bus links. The neighbourhood is a more deprived area within a larger conurbation and records average crime levels, so buyers should weigh price against local context.
Overall this is a pragmatic purchase: an affordable, characterful flat requiring some updating. It will suit a buyer wanting a low-cost entry into the market or an investor willing to refurbish and rent locally.
