This modern four-bedroom townhouse sits over three floors in the Byerhope area of Penshaw, designed for practical family living. The house offers two en-suite bedrooms, a bright lounge with a Juliet balcony, a fitted kitchen/diner with French doors to the enclosed rear garden, a separate utility room, garage and off-street parking — useful for everyday life and weekend visitors. Local green space is an immediate benefit: Penshaw Monument and Herrington Country Park are short walks away, with good road links for commuting.
Internally the property is presented in neutral, contemporary style throughout and was constructed in the mid-2000s. With 993 sq ft of accommodation, it fits a growing family or professionals needing flexible space across multiple floors. Practical features include mains gas central heating, double glazing and an easy-to-manage garden with direct garage access.
Buyers must note material tenure and lease issues. The property is leasehold with 83 years remaining and a ground rent of £175 per year. An 83-year lease remaining will likely require a prompt and potentially costly lease extension for mortgageability and future resale; investigate costs and lender requirements before committing. The overall house footprint is modest for four bedrooms, so families who need larger single-floor living should check room sizes in person.
Overall this is a well-presented, modern family townhouse in a sought-after Penshaw location, offering convenience to parks and commuter routes. Its principal drawback is the short remaining lease and associated costs; for buyers who can address lease renewal, the house offers ready-to-use accommodation and good local amenities.
