This well-presented first-floor flat offers three true double bedrooms and generous living space across 634 sq ft, making it a practical choice for first-time buyers or small families needing extra rooms. The property is sold with no upper chain and comes with a long lease (999 years) and share of freehold, reducing typical leasehold concerns.
Internal highlights include a contemporary fitted kitchen with integrated hob and oven, a partly upgraded bathroom with modern grey tiling and shower-over-bath, and double glazing fitted since 2002. The living room is bright and overlooks a shared rear yard with gated lane access. Heating is by mains gas boiler and radiators.
Important considerations: the home sits in a very deprived area with very high local crime rates — buyers should weigh location factors carefully. The building is Victorian solid brick and likely lacks cavity insulation, which can affect running costs and comfort; further insulation or energy improvements may be desirable. Overall footprint is small for three bedrooms, so rooms are compact despite being classed as doubles.
In short, this is a well-kept period flat with good transport links and nearby amenities, offered with long lease certainty and immediate availability. It suits purchasers prioritising space for bedrooms and proximity to North Shields town centre and the Fish Quay, while those prioritising low-crime, higher-amenity neighbourhoods or top energy performance should note the area's limitations.
