This well-presented three-bedroom semi-detached house on Mowbray Road offers a compact, ready-to-live-in home with generous outdoor space — ideal for a growing family wanting local amenities. The ground floor flows from an attractive front lounge into a contemporary extended kitchen-diner with snug area and French doors that open onto a large raised decking and enclosed rear garden. Driveway parking for two cars adds practical convenience.
Internally the accommodation is practical and tidy, with two double bedrooms and a smaller third room plus a single family bathroom. The property benefits from double glazing (installed pre-2002) and gas central heating via boiler and radiators. Council tax is very cheap, which helps running costs for first-time buyers or families on a budget.
Buyers should note the home’s compact overall size (approx. 343 sq ft) and older cavity walls that are assumed to lack insulation — there may be scope and cost for energy-efficiency improvements. The area is classified as ageing urban communities with above-average local crime and outer-city hardship indicators; however, the house sits a short walk from Forest Hall High Street, good-rated primary and secondary schools, bus routes and a nearby metro station for direct commuting to Newcastle.
For families who prioritise outdoor space, parking and transport links, this property offers a sensible starter or move-up option with clear potential. Practical renovations — insulation, any modernisation and an energy-efficiency upgrade — would increase comfort and long-term value.
