This one-bedroom mid-terrace cottage offers comfortable, mostly one-level living in a sought-after Sunderland location, just off Sea Road and close to Roker and Seaburn beaches. The property benefits from a large lounge with high ceilings and patio doors, a modern kitchen, utility room, and a useful loft space for storage. A rear yard with roller shutter provides secure off-street parking — a rare find in the area.
The house was formerly two bedrooms, so there is clear potential to reconfigure or update the layout to suit changing needs. Double glazing and a combi gas boiler deliver practical running costs, while freehold tenure and a low Council Tax Band B make this an economical choice for buyers seeking to downsize.
There are some material points to note: the loft does not have the necessary building-regulation approval and cannot be marketed as a bedroom, and the property has an EPC rating of D. The plot is small and external space is limited to the rear yard. These factors mean some buyers may want to budget for improvements or energy upgrades.
For downsizers or buyers seeking a manageable home near coastal amenities, this cottage combines location, scope for improvement and practical features such as off-road parking. Early inspection is recommended to appreciate the proportions and refurbishment potential.
