This three-bedroom end-of-terrace on Devon Road offers practical family living over two floors with about 952 sq ft of space. The layout includes two reception rooms, a kitchen with direct garden access, and a small family bathroom — a straightforward home for everyday life. The front driveway gives convenient off-street parking while the enclosed rear garden provides a safe outdoor space for children and pets.
The property is freehold and sits in a residential street of similar mid-20th-century houses, close to several primary and secondary schools and local amenities including shops and bus stops. Broadband speeds are fast and mobile signal is excellent, making the house suitable for home working and connected family life.
Buyers should be aware the neighbourhood scores as very deprived with above-average local crime; this may affect insurance and perceptions of resale. Internally there are some dated mid-century features and cosmetic updating would improve finish and value. Council tax is very low, which reduces running costs for a growing household.
Overall, this is a practical family home with parking and garden, good connectivity, and scope for modest modernisation. It will suit buyers wanting an affordable, freehold three-bedroom house in North Shields who are prepared to accept wider area challenges or invest in improvement.
