Summary - 43 MALVERN ROAD WASHINGTON NE38 0PB
3 bed 1 bath Terraced
Affordable starter home in quiet Lambton with good transport and schools.
Large lounge and separate dining room with good proportions
Modern fitted kitchen with integrated appliances
Utility room and enclosed front and rear gardens
Three bedrooms and family bathroom — practical family layout
Freehold and sold with no onward chain
Small plot and limited private outdoor space
Located in a deprived wider area; crime level reported as average
Generally well-presented but offers scope for cosmetic updating
This three-bedroom freehold terrace on Malvern Road is a straightforward entry-level home offered with no onward chain. The property benefits from generous principal rooms — a large lounge, separate dining room and a modern kitchen — plus a utility room and enclosed front and rear gardens. Double glazing, neutral décor and wood-effect flooring give the house a well-presented, practical feel for immediate occupation.
The location is a clear strength for first-time buyers: quiet Lambton street with good access to local schools, bus links and nearby amenities. Broadband speeds are fast and mobile signal is excellent, making the house suitable for home working or families needing reliable connectivity. Council Tax Band A keeps running costs low.
There are some real considerations to balance against the positives. The plot and gardens are small, limiting outdoor space. The wider area is relatively deprived and described as hard-pressed terraces; crime is average. Internally the layout and finishes are serviceable but present scope for cosmetic updating if you want to improve value — this makes the home attractive to both first-time purchasers and buy-to-let investors seeking refurbishment potential.
Overall this property suits buyers seeking an affordable, chain-free starter home in a well-connected neighbourhood. It offers immediate habitability with straightforward potential to personalise or modernise over time, but buyers should accept limited outdoor space and the broader socio-economic context of the area.
