This spacious four-bedroom maisonette sits in the heart of Whitley Bay, a short walk from shops, Metro links and sandy beaches. Spread over two principal floors, the layout includes a generous front lounge with bay window, a breakfasting kitchen, family bathroom and a jack-and-jill en-suite, making it practical for families or sharers.
Constructed in the early 20th century, the property keeps period character such as high ceilings and large windows while offering modern comforts including double glazing and gas central heating. The total internal area is approximately 139 sq m (about 1,496 sq ft), and the lease is long (c. 998 years remaining). Council Tax band B and an EPC rating of C add to the running-cost picture.
Practical drawbacks are presented honestly: the maisonette faces the town centre rather than the coast, there is only a rear yard (no garden), and some internal areas—particularly the bathroom—would benefit from updating. The building’s original solid brick walls imply limited cavity insulation, so improving thermal performance may be a consideration and cost for buyers.
This home suits families or first-time buyers seeking size and location rather than a turnkey renovation. It offers clear scope to personalise rooms while enjoying nearby schools, leisure facilities and good transport links. Note local crime is reported above average; viewings and future plans should reflect that local context.
