7 bed 2 bath Semi-Detached
Rare newly renovated seven-bedroom Edwardian semi with garages and coastal location—ideal for growing families..
Seven bedrooms across three floors with large period rooms and high ceilings.
Two garages plus off-street parking for multiple vehicles; decent plot.
Newly renovated throughout; roof reconditioned in 2022.
Only two bathrooms for seven bedrooms — further upgrades likely needed.
Solid-brick walls (assumed no cavity insulation) may increase heating costs.
Council Tax Band F — expensive to run.
Located in a very affluent, low-crime coastal neighbourhood with fast broadband.
Close to several Outstanding-rated schools and local amenities.
Set on one of Whitley Bay’s most prestigious streets, this newly renovated seven-bedroom Edwardian semi delivers generous period rooms and modern comforts across three stories. High ceilings, large bay windows and original moldings provide strong character while a substantial kitchen-diner and separate utility suit busy family life. The roof was reconditioned in 2022.
Practicality is a highlight: off-street parking for multiple cars, two garages and a decent plot give scope for vehicle storage and outdoor living. The house is situated in a very affluent, low-crime area with fast broadband and average mobile signal, close to highly rated schools including several Outstanding-rated secondaries—appealing for families wanting coastal proximity and strong local education.
Important considerations: despite recent renovation, the house has only two bathrooms for seven bedrooms which will be restrictive for larger households without further works. The property’s solid-brick construction is assumed to have no cavity insulation, so heating costs could be higher; main heating is gas boiler with radiators. Council Tax band F is expensive. Period properties of this age may need ongoing maintenance despite the recent works.
Overall, this is a rare, spacious family home combining Edwardian character and contemporary updates in an elite coastal setting. It will particularly suit buyers seeking versatile space for family living, home working or multi-generational occupation, and those prepared to add bathrooms or insulation to optimise comfort and running costs.
