54out of 100
Grade DWeak opportunity
Confidence: LOW
At £120,000, this three-bedroom mid-terrace is a light, liveable project rather than a full renovation: the main scope is refreshing dated finishes, sorting the unfinished floor edge and giving the usable gardens routine attention. The lounge opens into a glazed conservatory, and the fitted kitchen and bathroom appear serviceable, leaving room to put your own stamp on the home without starting from scratch.
The score is a cautious 54/100 (D): the fundamentals and location are encouraging, but the value picture cannot yet be judged because floor area is missing, so comparison with local £/sqf is unavailable. No upward chain is noted, and the property is described as close to South Shields town centre and transport links.
Key opportunities
- Refresh the lounge’s patterned wallpaper and contrasting paint to give the main living space a more cohesive look.
- Finish the exposed-looking floor edge in the photographed bedroom and update the flooring as desired.
- Tidy and improve the usable front and rear gardens, with the conservatory providing an additional connection to the rear garden.
