This 2-bedroom semi-detached house in Middlesbrough’s Longlands & Beechwood area presents a mixed bag. The property is situated in a location with access to local amenities including schools (Beech Grove Primary School, St Joseph’s Catholic Primary School, and others) within a reasonable walking distance. Public transportation connections are also reasonably convenient, with several train stations within a few kilometers. The James Cook University Hospital’s proximity is a significant plus for many potential buyers.

The house itself shows its age. While structurally sound, it requires a degree of modernisation and updates to be considered move-in ready. The kitchen and bathroom, specifically, are dated. The décor throughout also needs updating to enhance the aesthetic appeal. Interior images show a need for updating to improve visual appeal and functionality.

The property boasts a modest-sized garden, providing some outdoor space but not an extensive amount of land. The absence of plot size data unfortunately means the space cannot be accurately gauged.

In terms of pricing, considering comparable properties in the area which are listed for between £60,000 and £120,000 (with a wide range of conditions and sizes), the asking price of £89,950 sits in the middle-ground. The price may prove competitive depending on buyer priorities and preferences for modernisation needs. However, there’s potential for negotiation given the need for some renovation. Ultimately, the value will depend on the purchaser’s priorities and budget.

Therefore, we give this property 5 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
