This attractive three-bedroom semi-detached house in Cleadon offers generous living space and a sunny, private rear garden — a comfortable family home in a well-connected location. The lounge/diner flows to a conservatory, giving flexible living and entertaining space, while a practical kitchen and refitted bathroom make the layout ready for everyday life.
Positioned close to good primary and secondary schools, shops, parks and scenic walking routes, the property suits families or first-time buyers who need convenient transport links — regular buses, nearby Metro and East Boldon train station. Broadband and mobile coverage are strong, and the property is freehold with low council tax banding, keeping running costs competitive.
The house dates from the 1950s and has useful features such as double glazing (pre-2002), gas central heating with boiler and radiators, driveway parking and a decked seating area in the private rear garden. There is clear potential to modernise or reconfigure rooms to add value, particularly given the average overall size and room proportions.
Buyers should note some practical issues: the cavity walls are assumed uninsulated, the glazing is older, and the Energy Performance Certificate is a D — so further insulation and updating will improve efficiency. The area records higher crime levels, which prospective purchasers should consider alongside the many local amenities and schooling options. Overall, this is a well-situated, reasonably priced family home with immediate comfort and scope for improvement.
