A well-proportioned two-bedroom terraced cottage on Ripon Street, offering nearly 960 sq ft of flexible living across multiple levels. The house blends period features — high ceilings, a bay window and a fireplace/log burner — with contemporary fittings in the kitchen and bathroom, creating an appealing move-in-ready feel for first-time buyers or couples. Off-street parking via rear double gates and a landscaped rear yard add practical outdoor space close to the seafront.
Important practical points are clear: the property is solid-brick and likely lacks cavity wall insulation, the glazing is double but the install date is unknown, and there are signs that some maintenance (possible damp in the living room area) should be addressed. Council Tax Band A and mains gas central heating keep running costs low, while broadband and mobile signals are strong.
This freehold mid-terrace is offered in a well-connected part of Roker with good local amenities, schools rated Good and easy access to the seafront. The loft room provides significant additional space but buyers should consider access and any upgrades needed to convert it fully into a principal bedroom. Overall, the house represents solid value for buyers seeking character, space and proximity to the coast, with some routine maintenance and potential insulating improvements to consider.
