Summary - 87 GRANVILLE DRIVE FOREST HALL NEWCASTLE UPON TYNE NE12 9LE
2 bed 1 bath Semi-Detached
Affordable, low‑maintenance semi with westerly garden — ideal for first‑time buyers.
Two double bedrooms and family bathroom
This neat two-bedroom semi-detached house on Granville Drive offers a practical, move-in-ready option for first-time buyers or a small family. The layout includes a generous lounge opening to a long dining kitchen, with two double bedrooms and a family bathroom on the first floor. The property is gas‑centrally heated, on mains services, and has an EPC rating of C, helping to keep running costs reasonable.
Outside there are both front and westerly‑facing rear gardens — a pleasant spot for afternoon sun — while the small plot and compact footprint (approximately 587 sq ft) make maintenance straightforward. Council tax is in band A, which keeps local bills low. Broadband is cable with excellent mobile signal, and local bus links and facilities are within easy reach.
Practical drawbacks are clear and stated: the house is small and will suit buyers looking for modest space rather than larger family living. There’s no off‑street parking (on‑street only). School provision is mixed nearby — several good secondary and primary options, but one local primary is currently rated Inadequate. The property sits in a comfortable neighbourhood locally, though wider area classifications note challenges; buyers should visit to judge surroundings personally.
Overall this freehold semi offers an affordable, low‑maintenance step on the ladder with decent energy performance and outdoor space. It will particularly appeal to first-time buyers, commuters or investors seeking a straightforward let in a well‑connected part of Forest Hall.
