Tankerville Terrace, Jesmond, Newcastle upon Tyne

Set within one of Jesmond’s most sought after residential streets, this fine mid-terraced, double-fronted family home dates back to the 1880s and offers exceptional scale, character, and versatility across three impressive storeys.

Originally forming part of the Newcastle School for Girls as its science block, the property retains a wealth of period charm, including high ceilings, ornate coving, panelled doors, and tall skirting boards, and now offers a great opportunity for any purchaser looking for a home to update and modernise throughout.

The house is set back from Tankerville Terrace behind a delightful west facing front garden, creating an attractive approach via a central pathway to the entrance vestibule. Internally, the welcoming reception hall immediately showcases the home’s grand proportions and original features.

The current owners, who purchased the property in 2006, have carried out some works, including sanding the original floors, installing a new roof within the last two years, and updating the boilers just one year ago.

The ground floor offers flexible living space, comprising two reception rooms, alongside a generous bedroom with ensuite shower room with disabled facilities. There is also a utility area and access to a cellar providing useful storage.

To the first floor, a bright and spacious landing benefits from natural light and leads to a well-appointed laundry room with shower and sink, a separate WC, and access to an east-facing terrace. A half landing opens into a living/kitchen space, with sash windows, and onto three bedrooms.

The second floor hosts a family bathroom fitted with a four-piece suite, including twin sinks. The top floor features a light filled landing with Velux windows and four generous double bedrooms, ideal for large families or guest accommodation.

Externally, the property offers an east facing rear garden and a detached dwelling providing a single-plus garage and additional loft storage.

This is a rare opportunity to acquire a substantial period home of historical interest, offering flexible accommodation and outstanding potential, all within a prime Jesmond location.
