This two-bedroom mid-terraced cottage in Roker offers a compact, characterful home close to beaches, transport links and local amenities. The layout is traditional and straightforward: lounge, fitted kitchen, two bedrooms and a bathroom with a separate shower enclosure. The property is offered freehold and chain-free, ready for an internal viewing.
Practical updates already undertaken include uPVC double glazing, a combi gas boiler and a main roof re-covered in 2010. The rear yard has an electrically operated roller shutter door, useful storage/secure parking potential and a small outdoor area. Broadband and mobile signal are strong in the area.
The house is best suited to first-time buyers, couples or downsizers who value location and scope to personalise. The home will benefit from cosmetic modernisation throughout and the compact footprint (about 501 sq ft) means limited living and storage space compared with larger family homes. EPC rating D and Council Tax Band A give modest running costs.
Location is a core selling point: Roker’s sea front, metro and local schools are within easy reach. Note the neighbourhood records above-average crime compared with national figures; prospective buyers should satisfy themselves on safety and security. Overall this is a low-maintenance, chain-free starter home with period charm and clear potential to add value by updating interiors.
