This three-bedroom mid-terrace on Hillside Place offers practical family accommodation at an affordable price. The layout includes a spacious front living room, dining kitchen with integrated oven, and a useful utility room — sensible spaces for everyday life and entertaining. The property is freehold and benefits from double glazing and gas central heating, helping with running costs.
Rooms are well-proportioned for the house size: three bedrooms and a family bathroom upstairs suit first-time buyers or small families. The rear private yard provides outdoor space for seating or light landscaping, though the plot is small and best for low-maintenance use. Council tax is very cheap, and the location sits within an ageing-but-established area close to local amenities, transport links and several well-rated schools.
The house would benefit from some modernisation and cosmetic updating in places to maximise comfort and value. The EPC indicator suggests around a mid-range energy rating with scope for improvement; buyers should allow budget for targeted energy or aesthetic upgrades. Crime levels are average for the area — no elevated risk noted.
Practical positives include excellent mobile signal, fast broadband potential and mains gas boiler with radiators. This property represents a sensible, low-cost entry into the Gateshead market for buyers who are willing to invest a little time and money to refresh the interior.
