Five-bedroom period home with modern kitchen, close to metro — scope to improve energy efficiency.
Five bedrooms across three floors, generous living space and high ceilings
A spacious five-bedroom Victorian mid-terrace arranged over three floors, this late-19th-century home blends period character with practical family living. High ceilings, bay windows and original cornicing create generous, light-filled reception rooms while a modern fitted kitchen provides everyday convenience. The property is offered freehold at a competitive price and sits close to Felling and Heworth Metro stations, with good local schools and shops nearby.
The layout will suit growing families who need multiple bedrooms or those seeking rental income potential: three bedrooms on the first floor and two large attic rooms upstairs. The house has gas central heating, a single bathroom plus a separate WC, and a small private courtyard garden with gated access to the rear service lane.
Buyers should note material negatives honestly. There is only one main bathroom serving five bedrooms. The property is on a small plot in an area with above-average recorded crime and high levels of local deprivation. The solid brick walls are likely uninsulated and the double glazing appears to pre-date 2002, so improving thermal efficiency may be needed. These are manageable issues but will involve further investment.
In short, the house offers strong space and character for the price, good travel links and scope for modernisation. It will appeal most to families seeking lots of bedroom space, or investors and buyers willing to upgrade insulation and fittings to improve comfort and running costs.
