Affordable, practical home with driveway and easy commuter links.
Chain-free two-bedroom end terrace in quiet cul-de-sac
This two-bedroom end terrace in a quiet cul-de-sac on Byron Court is a solid entry-level home for a first-time buyer. The property is chain-free and benefits from gas central heating, double glazing and a single driveway — practical features that keep running costs down. The layout includes a porch, lounge with stairs to the first floor, kitchen with integrated oven and gas hob, two bedrooms and a bathroom.
Internally the house is compact (approximately 587 sq ft) and generally tidy but not luxury-finished; the rear garden is described as tired with paved and artificial grass areas and would benefit from basic refreshment. The EPC rating is D and the property was built in the 1980s, so buyers should expect standard maintenance items rather than a new-build specification.
Location is convenient for local amenities, public transport and nearby schools rated Good to Outstanding. There is no flooding risk and mobile and broadband signals are strong. Prospective buyers should note the wider area indicators: higher local crime and economic deprivation, which may affect resale tone and insurance considerations.
Overall this home offers affordable access to ownership with clear scope to add value through modest cosmetic improvements. It suits a buyer seeking a low-maintenance starter home with parking and easy links into Newcastle and Gateshead.
