Summary - 127 Oswald Close, Boldon Colliery NE35 9BY
2 bed 1 bath House
Ready-to-move, commuter-friendly starter property with parking and a paved garden.
Well presented two-bedroom semi-detached property
Approx 539 sq ft — compact internal footprint
Allocated parking bay plus additional on-street parking
Low-maintenance paved rear garden, sunny aspect
Modern fitted kitchen; combi boiler with safety certificate
EPC rating not yet provided (to follow)
Area: very deprived classification; average local crime
Small plot and living space — limited expansion potential
This well-presented two-bedroom semi offers an affordable, low-maintenance starter home in Boldon Colliery, a short drive from the A19 for straightforward commuting. Interiors are neutral and ready to move into, with a fitted kitchen, downstairs WC and a bright lounge. The rear paved garden and allocated parking make day-to-day life simple for first-time buyers or investors seeking immediate let-ready accommodation.
The house is compact (approximately 539 sq ft) and best suited to small families or those wanting a modest footprint—room sizes are comfortable but not generous. The property has been updated with a modern kitchen and a current combi boiler (landlord gas safety certificate confirmed), but the EPC rating is not yet provided.
Practical considerations are clear: the area scores high for deprivation and local classification suggests a predominantly young, hard-pressed community; crime is average. The plot and internal space are small, so purchasers wanting larger gardens or extensive living space should look elsewhere. Council tax is inexpensive and the tenure is freehold, which helps keep ongoing costs down.
Overall this is a good-value, move-in-ready option close to local schools, services and transport links, suitable for first-time buyers prioritising commute and low maintenance, or investors targeting entry-level rental demand.
