This attractive 1930s detached family home sits on a large, south-facing plot in comfortable suburbia, close to the seafront and Monkseaton Metro. Generously proportioned throughout, the house retains many original features — leaded and stained-glass windows, panelling, fireplaces and a double bay — and offers versatile living with four ground-floor reception rooms and four first-floor bedrooms.
The plot is a major asset: a secluded 52ft sunny rear garden, a larger-than-average garage with electric door, and a triple driveway for off-street parking. Practical fittings include a fitted kitchen, downstairs cloakroom, separate first-floor WC and gas central heating. Local schools (including an Outstanding secondary nearby) and coastal amenities are within easy walking distance, making this convenient for family life.
Buyers should note the property’s layout and period detail mean some modernisation could enhance long-term value — cosmetic updating and selective refurbishment will allow owners to personalise the home. Only one full bathroom serves four bedrooms, and not all windows are full double glazing (some secondary glazing present). Council Tax is relatively high (Band G).
Overall this is a characterful, large family house in a very affluent, low-crime area with excellent broadband and mobile signal. It will suit buyers seeking generous living space, original 1930s detail and a substantial, sunny garden, while those wanting a fully modern, low-maintenance finish should expect some updating works.
