Stop Staring At The Green And Pick Up That Paintbrush! This chain free end terrace on a quiet Stannington close could be transformed into a fabulous family home. Do you just give it a freshen up and some TLC or have you got bigger plans?

There's a certain kind of buyer who sees the patterned carpets and the 1980s kitchen cabinets and immediately starts to redecorate in their head. And then they clock the 20ft living room and they get very interested indeed.

This spacious end terrace certainly won’t be for everyone…but if you’re not afraid of rolling up your sleeves and getting stuck into a project it could be your best chance of putting down long term roots in Stannington.

You're on a quiet close, on the end of the row, with the green right in front of you.

The living room will stop you in your tracks. It stretches a little over 20ft (6.6m), with patio doors at the back that open onto the garden and a front window that looks straight out to the green. It's a great blank canvas for a proper family living space. 

The kitchen is next door. Chances are you’ll want to update it as one of your first jobs, which does open up the potential of opening it up to create a more sociable L-shaped living, dining and cooking space.

There's also a downstairs WC that keeps the ground floor practical - but it’s currently accessible only from the back of the built in garage. 

The garage also gives you something else to think about - it could be converted into extra living space - a dining room, a playroom, a home office. All subject to planning permission, of course, but it's the kind of potential that doesn't cost anything to factor into your budget now.

Upstairs there are three bedrooms, with the main bedroom benefiting from a separate dressing area - a genuinely useful touch that most houses at this price point don't offer. 

There's also handy eaves storage on the landing, a family bathroom and two further bedrooms, one of which has windows on two sides and gets a nice amount of light.

If you wanted to go “All-In” with the refurb the dressing room (being right next to the bathroom) would be easy enough to convert into a stylish ensuite shower room.

The east facing back garden is a decent size and gets you thinking about what else is possible here. There's room for a rear extension if you ever wanted to push the kitchen out and really open up the ground floor.

And you're well placed for everything Stannington offers. The Ridley Arms is a short walk away, the A1 is just minutes from your door for commuting to Newcastle or Morpeth, and Stannington First School - rated “Good” by Ofsted - is less than a ten minute walk away.

It’s not going to appeal to families who just want to move into a property where all the work has been done for you. But if you’re looking for potential rather than polish you could give it a quick freshen up and move in, or you could open up the kitchen, convert the garage and add an en-suite. Either way, the house has plenty of scope to become your long term family home.

Get in touch to arrange a viewing - Stannington properties with this much potential don't sit around for long.
