Two-bedroom semi-detached bungalow, single-storey living
A practical two-bedroom semi-detached bungalow in Forest Hall, offered freehold and ready for a new buyer to personalise. The single-storey layout and manageable plot make it a strong choice for downsizers or retirees seeking one-level living with off-street parking and a garage. At around 862 sq ft the accommodation is a comfortable, average-sized home with a lounge, kitchen/breakfast room, utility space, two bedrooms and a shower room.
The property benefits from a low-maintenance rear garden, a paved patio, driveway parking and an attached garage. Double glazing and a mains-gas boiler with radiators provide basic comfort and efficiency; mobile signal and broadband speeds in the area are good, and there is no flood risk.
Location is a key asset: close to Forest Hall High Street, local shops, parks including Killingworth Lake and Lakeside Park, and public transport links (bus and nearby metro) connecting to Newcastle and local business parks. The A19 is a short drive away for regional access.
Buyers should note the local context and maintenance realities: the area scores as deprived with above-average crime indicators, and the bungalow reflects mid-20th-century construction with probable scope for modernization and updating. The property is best suited to purchasers who want a convenient, single-level home they can refresh rather than a move-in-perfect finish.
