This mid-terraced Victorian home offers practical space and straightforward ownership for a first-time buyer or investor. Two double bedrooms and a generous dining kitchen provide flexible living, while double glazing and a modern shower room reduce immediate maintenance needs.
Set in Throckley village, the property is within easy reach of local shops, green spaces (stream, meadow, wood) and good transport links into Newcastle. Nearby schools include Throckley Primary (Outstanding) and several well-rated secondaries, making the location suitable for young families or tenants.
The house is freehold with an EPC rating of C and very low council tax (Band A), which helps running costs. There is a small front and enclosed rear garden for outdoor space and potential landscaping. Built c.1900–1929, the property retains period character such as a fireplace and chimney breast in the lounge.
Notable considerations: the original cavity walls are assumed uninsulated, so adding insulation would improve comfort and efficiency. The area records higher crime levels and sits within a very deprived local profile, which may affect resale values and perceptions. The plot is small and there is no garage.
With straightforward layout and clear potential for targeted improvement, this home suits buyers seeking an affordable starter house or a rental investment with room for value-adding upgrades.
