Summary - Westoe Road, South Shields NE33 3PW
4 bed 1 bath Town House
High-potential refurbishment near seaside and local amenities.
Large Victorian mid-terrace with four bedrooms and substantial basement
A substantial Victorian mid-terrace arranged over four floors, this freehold town house offers 2,215 sq ft of flexible space and clear scope for value-led improvement. With four bedrooms, large reception rooms and a sizable basement with multiple rooms, the property suits an investor or developer targeting refurbishment, rental conversion or staged resale. The house benefits from roof and window replacements but requires comprehensive internal updating; decorative and structural attention is needed in places, including visible mould and damaged plasterwork.
The layout includes a bright front lounge, a generous kitchen/diner, shower room plus separate WC on the ground floor, and two large bedrooms on each upper floor. The basement provides significant additional space and a lean-to conservatory, useful for storage, utility or potential conversion subject to consents. A small front area and rear yard with a brick outhouse complete the outdoor space.
Location is a practical selling point: vacant possession, no upper chain, quick access to local amenities, transport links and the award-winning coastline. Broadband and mobile signals are strong, and nearby schools include several rated Good or Outstanding. Investors should note the area’s social and economic challenges — high crime statistics, very deprived local area classification — which will influence rental demand, tenant profiles and resale timing.
Overall this is a high-potential but hands-on opportunity. The property’s period character and generous room sizes give scope for attractive refurbishment schemes, but budget realistically for internal renovation, remedial works (including mould/ceiling repairs) and any required consents for basement alterations. EPC rating E and single bathroom may affect running costs and market positioning until upgraded.
