Property Oracle says ..
This three-bedroom semi-detached house located on Rokerby Avenue in Whickham, Gateshead presents a compelling opportunity for potential buyers. The property’s key strengths lie in its location within a sought-after village setting and the significant garden space. Whickham offers a blend of suburban tranquility and convenient access to amenities, with well-regarded schools in close proximity, including several rated as ‘Good’ by Ofsted. Transport links, while not immediately at the doorstep, are reasonably accessible with the Metrocentre a short distance away. The interior presents a mixed picture. Some rooms have recently been updated with modern flooring and stylish features, particularly the living area’s décor. However, other areas of the house show the need for some further refurbishment or modernising such as the kitchen and the downstairs toilet. The sizable garden is a clear highlight. Its well-maintained lawn and paved areas offer ample space for outdoor living and entertainment. A shed provides additional storage. While the property’s overall condition is fair, a potential buyer should budget for some future renovations or repairs to fully capitalise on the property’s potential. The asking price of £270,000 appears reasonable based on comparable properties in the area, although this evaluation is limited by the absence of square footage data. Prospective buyers should consider undertaking a professional survey to get a comprehensive view of the property’s structural integrity and to form a more informed decision on the overall value and suitability of the property.
Therefore, we give this property 6 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
