This semi-detached bungalow on Chapel House Drive offers a straightforward, low-maintenance home ideal for downsizers or small families. The single-storey layout includes two bedrooms with fitted robes, a living room that opens directly onto a manageable rear garden, and a practical kitchen and modern shower room — ready to move into with no onward chain.
Externally the plot is generous for the type, with a gravelled front garden, driveway, attached carport and a single garage (sized for a small car). Gas combi central heating and double glazing help keep running costs down; Council Tax Band B is inexpensive for the area.
Known positives for the neighbourhood include good local amenities, regular bus links into Newcastle, fast broadband and highly regarded nearby primary schools. The property is well presented throughout, but care is needed on a couple of technical points: the cavity walls are as-built with no known insulation (so loft or wall insulation could improve efficiency), and purchasers should commission a mining search before exchange given local mining heritage.
Overall this is a practical, quietly attractive bungalow offering easy single-storey living. It suits buyers seeking a low-upkeep home in a well-served suburb, while also offering scope for modest energy-efficiency improvements and personalisation.
