Summary - 79 BROUGHTON ROAD SOUTH SHIELDS NE33 2RR
2 bed 1 bath Flat
Chain-free two-bedroom flat close to transport links and the seafront — ideal for first-time buyers or investors..
Chain-free two-bedroom upper flat with vacant possession
Set on Broughton Road in central South Shields, this two-bedroom upper flat offers a practical, low-maintenance home or rental in a highly convenient town-centre location. The property is chain-free and sold with vacant possession, making for a straightforward purchase. Commuters benefit from excellent public transport links nearby, and the coast, seafront attractions and Marine Park are all within easy reach.
Internally the flat is a bright, average-sized 636 sq ft home with a modern kitchen, open-plan lounge/diner and two well-proportioned bedrooms. A part-boarded loft provides useful storage and a rear yard gives outdoor space—features that add everyday convenience for first-time buyers or landlords targeting strong local rental demand.
The finish is tidy and recently redecorated, but the property is presented for buyers to put their own stamp on. It is leasehold with a long term remaining and a nominal ground rent, and council tax is low (Band A), which supports affordable running costs.
Buyers should note material local considerations: recorded very high crime levels and an area classified as deprived. The flat suits purchasers prioritising location, transport access and rental potential over a pristine, suburban setting. An early viewing will make clear the balance of value and local context.
