Summary - 223 BENSHAM ROAD GATESHEAD NE8 1US
3 bed 1 bath Terraced
Well-located period home with garden, parking and strong transport links.
Three double bedrooms and generous 1,053 sq ft internal space
An attractively proportioned Victorian mid-terrace with three bedrooms and over 1,050 sq ft of accommodation, offered freehold and with no onward chain. The house retains period character — high ceilings, bay window and original mouldings — and benefits from a front garden, rear yard with gated access and off-street parking. Good local transport links make Newcastle city centre accessible and a highly rated primary school is nearby.
Practical running info is straightforward: mains gas central heating with boiler and radiators, double glazing (installed before 2002) and council tax band B. The property has an EPC rating of D and solid brick walls (likely no cavity insulation), so there is scope to improve energy performance and reduce bills if desired.
The neighbourhood is in a very deprived area with higher-than-average crime levels and mixed socioeconomic indicators, which will affect resale and rental perceptions. The plot is small and the exterior and garden will need some attention. Overall, this is a characterful home suited to a first-time buyer or growing family prepared to invest modestly in updating and energy improvements to maximise long-term value.
