Summary - 129 LANERCOST DRIVE NEWCASTLE UPON TYNE NE5 2DL
2 bed 1 bath Bungalow
Practical single‑storey home with garage, garden and good transport links.
Chain-free semi-detached bungalow with single-level living
A chain-free, semi-detached bungalow in Fenham offering practical single-level living for downsizers or small households. The layout includes an open-plan lounge/dining room, two double bedrooms, kitchen, conservatory and a single bathroom — all set within a modest but useable footprint of about 958 sq ft. Outside there is a gated driveway leading to an attached garage, plus front and rear gardens that provide private outdoor space.
The property is freehold and benefits from double glazing, mains gas central heating and fast fibre broadband with excellent mobile signal — useful for remote working or staying connected. Transport links to Newcastle city centre, the MetroCentre and the A1/A69 are convenient for commuting, shopping and services. Local schools nearby have good Ofsted ratings, and neighbourhood amenities are within easy reach.
Known drawbacks are its EPC rating of D (current 63, potential 78) and mid‑20th century fittings that are tidy but traditional rather than contemporary. A mining search is recommended for the region due to local mining heritage. The bungalow has no accessibility adaptations, and the overall footprint is modest — so it suits buyers seeking single-level, compact accommodation rather than larger family space.
Overall this bungalow represents a straightforward, low‑maintenance home with good transport links and private parking. It will appeal most to downsizers, first-time buyers wanting a single-storey property, or buyers looking for a tidy, chain-free purchase with some scope to improve energy performance and modernise interiors.
