Tucked into a quiet cul‑de‑sac in South Shields, this three‑bedroom end terrace sits on a notable corner plot with a paved driveway and attached garage. The house offers spacious living areas for its overall small size, including a farmhouse‑style kitchen with underfloor heating, a rear conservatory, and a boarded loft with lighting—features that suit first‑time buyers seeking a ready‑to‑adapt home.
The accommodation is comfortable but will reward cosmetic work: original period details such as a Victorian fireplace and ornate plasterwork remain, yet some rooms show dated finishes and signs of wear. The rear garden is low‑maintenance (artificial lawn and brick paving), and an additional side garden—purchased separately—adds outdoor versatility though any purchaser should check ownership details.
Practical benefits include mains gas central heating, double glazing (post‑2002), a garage with electric roller door, good mobile and broadband coverage, and very low council tax (Band A). The property is freehold and conveniently placed for Tyne Dock Metro, local shops on Stanhope Road and Boldon Lane, and nearby schools, making it sensible for commuters and first‑time buyers prioritising transport and amenities.
Be mindful of local context: the postcode falls in a very deprived area with higher crime levels than average. The EPC is D and parts of the house require modernization and minor damp investigation—buyers should budget for refurbishment to bring the property fully up to modern standards.
