Property Oracle says ..
This four-bedroom, three-bathroom property in Derwentwater Gardens, Whickham, offers potential for buyers seeking a family home in a well-connected location. Whickham itself enjoys a reputation for good local schools and amenities, with several highly-rated primary schools within a reasonable distance. The nearby Metrocentre provides access to extensive shopping and leisure facilities. Public transportation options including train stations are also conveniently located, offering good connectivity to wider areas.
The property itself, judging from the provided photographs, presents a mixed picture in terms of condition. The interior decor is dated; the kitchen and bathrooms, in particular, would benefit significantly from modernization. However, the basic structure of the house looks sound, and the size—four bedrooms and three bathrooms— suggests ample living space.
The property includes a small garden and what appears to be off street parking. While not vast, it offers some outdoor space.
The listed price of £259,950 needs to be considered within the context of the local market. Given the limited information on square footage, a precise price per square foot comparison is not possible. However, comparing it with other recently sold properties in the same area, the asking price appears somewhat competitive. Ultimately, the purchase decision would depend on a buyer’s willingness to invest in the necessary refurbishment work to bring the property up to a more contemporary standard.
Therefore, we give this property 5 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
