Set on a large, secluded plot just north of Whitley Bay, this five-bedroom detached Dutch bungalow offers rare scope for extension, updating and multi-car garaging. The house sits back from the road with electric gates, a double-width car port and three garages, plus a sunny west-facing rear garden — strong assets for a growing family or a buyer seeking development potential.
Internally the layout provides versatile living: two ground-floor reception rooms, a conservatory, a substantial L-shaped dining kitchen with quality built-in appliances and five bedrooms over two floors. Practical features include uPVC double glazing, gas central heating and useful utility space. The property’s room sizes and approximate 2,690 sq ft overall give scope for reconfiguring or creating modern living spaces while retaining mid-20th-century character.
Buyers should note the house has a dated mid-century appearance and will benefit from refurbishment to modernise fixtures, finishes and decoration. Council tax is in a higher band and the layout, while spacious, reflects an older style; prospective purchasers should allow budget for updating. Tenure is freehold.
Location is a major selling point: easy walking distance to the sea front, local shops, Briardene Nature Park and golf course, with good road links to the A19 and Tyne Tunnel. The property sits in a very affluent, low-crime area and lies in the catchment for highly rated local schools, making it well suited to families wanting space and long-term potential.
