Summary - 8a Mortimer Road NE33 4TU
2 bed 1 bath Maisonette
Large chain-free maisonette, newly renovated kitchen and glazing, 999-year lease.
Large 1,130 ft² maisonette — flexible 2-bed/3-bed layout
A large, chain-free maisonette in South Shields offering flexible accommodation and immediate move-in potential. The property totals about 1,130 ft² and can be used as two bedrooms with two reception rooms or configured as three bedrooms — useful for families or rental yields. The flat is vacant, newly double glazed and has a newly fitted kitchen, so day-one living standards are good.
Practical benefits include a very long 999-year lease, mains gas central heating and a low council tax band (A). The layout includes a bright bay-front living room and a well-lit attic bedroom with Velux, giving useful character and natural light. Broadband and mobile signal are available at typical local speeds and coverage.
Important negatives are straightforward: the property sits in an area classed as deprived with very high local crime rates, which will affect desirability for some buyers and tenants. The building is solid brick with no known insulation in the walls (as built), so heating costs could be higher than modern standards unless upgraded. Prospective purchasers should also check the formal status of the lease extension application and confirm any associated costs.
Priced at £99,995, this maisonette will suit first-time buyers seeking generous space on a budget, or investors seeking a large, ready-to-rent unit in a well-served town location. The home is close to schools, shops and public transport, but buyers should weigh neighbourhood safety and potential insulation or improvement works when deciding to view.
