This end-terrace, freehold home sits literally seconds from South Shields coastline, offering easy sea access and coastal views from the upper floor. A dedicated parking space right outside and a generous corner plot with lawn and paved seating make outdoor living straightforward, while a brick wall gives added privacy and security.
Inside, grey laminate flooring flows through a bright living room with long vertical windows and a compact modern kitchen with cream handleless units, breakfast bar and gas hob. Both bedrooms easily take double beds, and the layout is practical for first-time buyers seeking ready-to-live-in accommodation with scope to personalise.
The property has one full bathroom plus a separate WC — straightforward to combine if a larger bathroom is required. Built in the late-1960s/early-1970s with double glazing of unknown install date and gas central heating, the house is comfortable but buyers should budget for standard checks and potential updates given the build era.
Be candid about location factors: the immediate area is classified as very deprived with high local crime and many rented terraces nearby. These conditions can affect long-term resale, insurance costs and the local market; they do not change the home’s seaside appeal but are important to consider when making offers.
