This three-bedroom semi-detached home in Low Fell offers a spacious plot and traditional layout suited to growing families. The property is chain free and sits on a huge rear plot with a generous patio and lawn — strong potential for garden landscaping or extension (subject to planning).
Internally the house follows a practical mid-20th-century plan: entrance porch, hallway with storage, separate dining room, long lounge with patio doors, fitted kitchen and a single family bathroom. Double glazing and mains gas central heating provide everyday comfort; some cosmetic updating would personalise the home and add value.
Location strengths include nearby good and outstanding primary and secondary schools, local shops and frequent bus links into Gateshead and Newcastle. Council tax is described as low, broadband and mobile signals are strong — useful for home working and family life.
Buyers should note material negatives: there is only one bathroom for three bedrooms, the rear garden needs some maintenance, and the house dates from the 1950s so further modernisation (kitchen, wiring, or insulation) may be desirable. Crime and area deprivation levels are average. Overall, this is a practical family property with sizeable outdoor space and clear scope to increase comfort and value.
