Summary - CHASE COURT 56 RECTORY LANE WHICKHAM NEWCASTLE UPON TYNE NE16 4NL
2 bed 1 bath Apartment
Low-maintenance apartment near shops, transport and communal facilities.
Second-floor retirement apartment with lift access
A bright two-bedroom retirement apartment on the second floor of a well-maintained McCarthy & Stone development in the centre of Whickham Village. The flat offers lift access, a welcoming living/dining room with a Juliet balcony, a fitted kitchen, two double bedrooms and a modern shower room. Residents benefit from communal gardens, a lounge, laundry room, guest suite and off-street parking.
This apartment suits someone seeking low-maintenance, independent living with easy access to local shops, cafés, healthcare and regular transport links into Newcastle. The building’s communal facilities encourage social activity while the apartment itself offers privacy and practical storage.
Important practical points are clear: the property is leasehold with 102 years remaining and an average annual service charge of £3,600, and the EPC rating is currently to be confirmed. Council tax sits in band C. These factors should be considered alongside the convenience and peace of mind the development provides.
Overall, this is a well-positioned retirement home offering community amenities, useful on-site services and a central village location — a sensible option for buyers prioritising convenience and low-maintenance living.
