The list price of £270,000 appears somewhat high considering the condition of the property and limited land. While the average price for South View is also £270,000, this average may not account for the property’s condition, which requires considerable investment for refurbishment. Considering comparable properties in the area, the price seems slightly inflated, especially given the necessary renovations. However, the four bedrooms may justify a slightly higher price than other properties with fewer bedrooms in the area.

Based on the provided photos, the property shows its age and requires significant modernisation. While the exterior appears relatively well-maintained, the interior shows dated decor, worn carpets, and generally needs updating. The kitchen and bathroom are functional but outdated. Overall, it’s not in poor condition, but it’s far from excellent and needs substantial renovation.

The property is situated in Monkton, Jarrow, which benefits from proximity to several good schools (St Oswald’s Cofe Aided Primary School, Jarrow School, Bede Burn Primary School, and Jarrow Cross Cofe Primary School, all rated ‘Good’ by Ofsted) and is relatively close to Heworth train station (7.06 km). While not in the most central location, it appears to be in a residential area with some local amenities. The surrounding streets show a range of property values, indicating a mixed-level neighborhood.

The property has a small yard or paved area, but this is not a substantial garden. It’s more accurately described as a small, enclosed space, not suitable for significant outdoor activities or landscaping.
