Three-bed semi with garage, garden and strong transport links near North Shields coast..
Three double bedrooms, two with built-in storage
This three-bedroom semi-detached home on Wark Avenue offers practical family living within easy reach of North Shields town centre, Fish Quay and the Tynemouth coast. The ground floor has an open-plan kitchen/diner with integrated appliances and French doors to a patioed rear garden, plus a bright living room centred on an existing fireplace. Off-street parking for two and a detached garage add useful storage and parking options.
Upstairs there are three double bedrooms (two with built-in storage) and a family bathroom. The property benefits from post-2002 double glazing, mains gas central heating and a filled cavity wall construction typical of 1930s–1940s build, helping with energy performance and comfort. Council tax is very low, and mobile and broadband connectivity are strong for the area.
Buyers should note the local context: the wider neighbourhood is classified as very deprived with above-average crime rates, which will matter for some purchasers and investors. Externally the home appears generally fair but would benefit from minor redecoration and garage door refurbishment; interiors may show some dated finishes. This house suits a first-time buyer or family seeking a well-located home with scope to personalise, or an investor targeting rental demand close to schools and coastal amenities.
Viewing is recommended to assess condition and layout in person, and to confirm any refurbishment costs before offer.
