Rare seven-bedroom Victorian terrace with sea views and income-generating self-contained flat.
Seven bedrooms and four bathrooms across three floors, including self-contained two-bed flat
This sturdy mid-terrace Victorian house sits directly opposite Marine Park with direct sea views — a rare coastal position for South Shields. Its seven bedrooms, four bathrooms and three reception rooms are arranged over three floors, including a self-contained two-bedroom flat with private entrance that is already used successfully as an Airbnb. That dual-use layout suits multigenerational living or an owner-occupied property with reliable rental income.
The house retains strong period character: high ceilings, bay windows, original panelling, coving and ceiling roses. Principal rooms feel bright and traditional — the living room has a log fire and bay window, while the dining room opens onto a low-maintenance, freshly painted rear terrace and sheds. The kitchen is fitted in shaker style with a Belfast sink and tower ovens.
There are practical positives and clear areas to note. The property is freehold and has mains gas central heating and double glazing installed before 2002. The building is solid brick with no assumed wall insulation and may benefit from thermal upgrades. The plot is small and internally the overall footprint is modest for seven bedrooms — some rooms are compact or used flexibly.
Location is a strong selling point: immediate park and sea outlook, a short walk to Ocean Road, shops, cafes, and good bus and Metro links. However, the neighbourhood scores as deprived with very high local crime statistics, which will matter to some buyers and could affect lettability and insurance costs. For investors or growing families seeking coastal proximity and rental flexibility, this property offers significant potential once modernisation and security considerations are addressed.
