This two-bedroom end-terraced house located on Aln Crescent in Gosforth, Newcastle upon Tyne presents a mixed bag. The property’s position within the desirable Gosforth area is a significant advantage, providing access to good schools and transport links. The nearby Regent Farm First School and North Fawdon Primary School both received ‘Good’ Ofsted ratings, increasing the appeal to families. The ease of access to Newcastle city centre by train or Metro is another positive aspect.

However, the property’s condition presents a notable drawback. The provided images reveal dated interiors requiring significant modernisation. The carpets, wallpaper, and kitchen units appear worn and outdated. The garden also needs attention. A buyer will need to budget for substantial renovations to bring the property up to modern standards. The absence of details regarding the property’s square footage and plot size hinders a complete analysis.

Concerning price, the listed price of £140,000 seems relatively high given the necessary renovations. While Gosforth is a sought-after area, and similar properties in the area may indeed fetch more, the presented images suggest a need for significant investment before the property is ready for habitation. Other nearby properties, also on Aln Crescent, have been sold for considerably lower prices. To determine whether this property represents a reasonable value for money would require more specific data such as the property’s precise square footage and a detailed comparison with recently sold properties of similar size and condition in the immediate vicinity. The information currently supplied does not allow a definitive assessment of this key aspect. Therefore, prospective buyers should carefully consider all factors before making an offer.

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