A chain-free, freehold terraced property on a very large plot in Lynemouth, offering clear scope for refurbishment or rental income. The house benefits from double glazing, mains gas central heating and fast broadband — practical basics that reduce immediate expenditure.
Internally the layout spans two floors with living space, kitchen, downstairs W/C and an upstairs bathroom. Advertised details are inconsistent about bedroom count (advert lists both two and three bedrooms); buyers should verify exact room configuration during viewing. Rooms are serviceable but dated, with wooden floors, simple fittings and standard ceiling heights.
The plot includes generous front and rear gardens and a small yard/driveway, useful for outdoor living or extension potential (subject to consents). The area is a small town fringe with local shops, schools rated Good nearby, and community amenities — convenient for families or tenants.
Material drawbacks are significant: the property needs modernisation throughout and sits in an area with high crime and very high deprivation, which will affect resale values and rental demand. This is best suited to investors prepared to refurbish, first-time buyers looking for a budget project, or purchasers seeking long-term value-add rather than a move-in-ready home.
