This extended Edwardian semi-detached house offers generous, flexible accommodation across three storeys — ideal for a growing family. High ceilings, bay windows and period mouldings give character, while a large kitchen/dining room with lantern roof and French doors creates a bright, social hub. The main bedroom includes an en suite and two further bedrooms on the first floor plus two bedrooms on the second floor, providing privacy for children or guests.
Practical features include a detached garage, a utility room, wood-burning stoves in the reception spaces and integrated kitchen appliances. The property is freehold, in Council Tax band C, and lies a short walk from Whitley Bay town centre, schools rated Good, and the coastline. The area is very affluent with low crime, excellent mobile signal and fast broadband — useful for home working and family life.
Buyers should note the plot is relatively small and the garden is medium-sized with patio and raised beds — low maintenance but limited for large outdoor activities. The house is solid brick (constructed 1900–1929) and the wall insulation status is assumed absent; double glazing is present but install date is unknown, so upgrading insulation or windows may be desirable. There are two bathrooms (plus a second-floor WC), so larger families may wish to add facilities or reconfigure spaces.
Overall this is a spacious, characterful family home with strong location benefits and scope for energy-efficiency improvements. Viewings are recommended for buyers seeking period charm combined with extended modern living spaces.
