This spacious mid-terraced Victorian house offers substantial living space across roughly 1,292 sq ft — rare at this price point in Benwell. High ceilings and bay windows preserve character, while a modern kitchen and double glazing provide practical, ready-to-use elements for everyday living.
The layout suits families or first-time buyers: two reception rooms on the ground floor, a kitchen, three bedrooms upstairs, a bathroom plus separate WC, and small front garden with a rear yard. The home is freehold and well connected by frequent public transport, with quick access to Newcastle city centre, the MetroCentre and the A1/A69.
Buyers should note clear areas for improvement. The EPC rating is E, walls are likely uninsulated solid brick, and the property sits in a very deprived area with high local crime — factors that affect running costs, resale and rental appeal. A mining search is recommended due to regional mining history. On-street parking and a small plot may limit vehicle and outdoor options.
For purchasers seeking space and period character at an entry-level price, this house offers strong potential. With targeted investment — insulation, energy upgrades and security improvements — it can deliver better comfort and value. Investors should weigh location risks; owner-occupiers who prioritise affordability and scope to improve will find this a practical choice.
