Summary - 4 GREATHEAD STREET SOUTH SHIELDS NE33 5LX
2 bed 1 bath Terraced
Affordable starter house with large private yard and garage.
Chain free freehold two-bedroom terraced house
A chain-free two-bedroom terraced home on Greathead Street offering straightforward, affordable entry to South Shields. The property is freehold with practical accommodation over two floors, a fitted kitchen, a three-piece bathroom and a bright reception room. An unusually large private rear yard and a garage provide rare outside space and off-street parking for this area.
Internally the rooms feel spacious for the footprint: a generous double bedroom, a versatile second room and a medium-size living room with laminate flooring and a gas fireplace. The kitchen is contemporary and compact, functional for everyday use with direct access to the rear yard—ideal for outdoor dining or storage. EPC rating C and council tax band A help keep running costs lower.
This home suits first-time buyers or those downsizing who want a ready-to-live-in base with scope to personalise. It’s chain-free for a quicker move. Local amenities, frequent bus routes and several good primary and secondary schools are within easy reach.
Buyers should note material context: the property sits in a very deprived locality with above-average crime levels, and the plot is small despite the long rear yard. The kitchen is compact and there is potential to modernise other elements if a contemporary finish is preferred. Overall, the house offers solid value for an affordable, freehold starter home with useful outdoor space and a garage.
