Set on sought-after Rokeby Terrace in Heaton, this chain-free three-bedroom first-floor flat offers ready-to-live-in accommodation with long lease security. The flat sits within an early–mid 20th-century terrace and combines period exterior charm with a recently updated kitchen, gas central heating and double glazing. A private rear yard provides off-street parking — a rare convenience in the area.
The layout includes entrance hall, lounge, fitted kitchen, three bedrooms and a shower room/WC. The accommodation will suit first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors seeking solid rental demand from students and professionals in this popular part of Newcastle. The 999-year lease removes short-lease concerns; tenure is leasehold.
Practical positives include fast broadband, excellent mobile signal, low local crime and very low council tax. Local amenities, regular buses and several primary and secondary schools (including Outstanding-rated options) are all within easy reach. Buyers should note there is a single shower room only and the property is a first-floor flat within a terrace, which may not suit those requiring ground-floor access.
Overall, this property offers a sensible balance of immediate comfort and clear rental or owner-occupier potential, with minimal immediate work needed beyond personal updating and usual maintenance.
