Summary - 1 BLENKINSOP STREET WALLSEND NE28 8LJ
2 bed 1 bath Terraced
Ready-to-move-in Victorian terrace with modern kitchen, boarded loft and small private yard..
Chain-free freehold two-bedroom mid-terrace
This compact two-bedroom mid-terrace in Wallsend offers a ready-to-move-in starter home or buy-to-let with clear practical advantages. The house is presented to a modern standard throughout, with a fitted kitchen that includes integrated appliances, a modern bathroom, and built-in wardrobes in both bedrooms. A boarded loft with pull-down ladders provides useful storage, while a small private westerly yard offers outdoor space and evening sun.
The property’s traditional red-brick Victorian façade and mid-terrace layout give period character while internal updates have delivered efficient, low-maintenance living. Heating is mains gas via a boiler and radiators; double glazing was fitted after 2002. Broadband and mobile connectivity are good to fast, and there is convenient access to local shops, bus services and the metro station — useful for commuters and first-time buyers.
Buyers should note the broader area context: the local neighbourhood is classified as challenged and the wider area shows above-average crime and high deprivation levels. The house sits on a small plot with a modest internal footprint (approximately 786 sq ft), so it will suit those seeking compact, economical accommodation rather than large-family space. The solid brick walls are assumed to be uninsulated — a survey should confirm thermal performance and any improvement costs.
Offered chain-free on a freehold title with Council Tax Band A and an Energy Rating D, this property represents a straightforward purchase for first-time buyers or investors seeking a tenanted return with low initial snagging. Any purchaser should commission a survey to check construction details, insulation and services, and to confirm suitability against personal requirements.
