Ground-floor living with south-facing garden and easy local connections.
70% shared ownership — affordable entry to home ownership
This two-bedroom ground-floor flat offers an affordable 70% shared ownership route into a peaceful over-55s community in Jesmond Vale. The layout includes a bright reception room opening onto a private south-facing garden, a functional kitchen with integrated appliances, and a double bedroom with built-in wardrobes. EPC rating C and gas central heating keep running costs reasonable, with council tax in Band B.
Important practical points are clear: the lease to be granted on completion will be 60 years, which may restrict mortgage availability and could deter some lenders. There is an annual payment to the landlord of £1,725.11 from 1 April 2025 (reviewed annually), and a service charge applies. Any buyer must pass the landlord’s eligibility assessment prior to sale.
The flat suits a downsizer seeking ground-floor living, outside space and a low-maintenance garden close to local amenities and good transport links. While in generally sound condition, some internal updating would personalise the home and add value. Viewings are recommended for buyers who need accessible living with manageable running costs and accept the lease and shared-ownership conditions.
