This three-bedroom semi-detached home on Split Crow Road is offered for sale via online auction, presenting clear scope for an investor or hands-on buyer prepared to renovate. The property sits on a generous corner plot with gardens to front, side and rear, plus off-street parking and a useful brick outhouse. With mains gas central heating, UPVC double glazing and a recently fitted bathroom, the basic services are in place ready for improvement.
Internally the layout comprises entrance hall, lounge, dining room, kitchen, landing, three bedrooms and a bathroom across approximately 881 sq ft. The house is average-sized for the estate and dates from the post-war period (1950–1966); it needs updating throughout, offering straightforward refurbishment potential for rental re-letting or resale.
Practical factors to weigh: the property will be sold at auction with fees and no upward chain, and it is located in a very deprived area with above-average local crime levels. On the positive side, there is no flood risk, Council Tax is low (Band A), broadband and mobile signals are good, and several nearby primary schools have Good Ofsted ratings.
This is a value-led opportunity for someone targeting rental returns or a renovation flip in Gateshead. Buyers should budget for refurbishment works and factor auction costs and local area considerations into their purchase decision.
