Affordable two-bed flat near the riverside with good transport links.
Two bedrooms in a compact 571 sq ft layout
A well-presented two-bedroom first-floor flat in The Staiths, offering an affordable entry into Gateshead’s riverside corridor. The living room benefits from large windows and natural light; the practical kitchen, modern bathroom and gas central heating make the apartment move-in ready. The communal courtyard provides a pleasant outdoor spot without gardening upkeep.
This compact 571 sq ft home suits first-time buyers or investors seeking a low-maintenance property with good transport links and nearby amenities. Constructed after 2007, it has double glazing and an efficient boiler with radiators. The 131-year lease gives long-term security, and Council Tax band B keeps running costs low.
Be realistic about local context: the wider neighbourhood records higher crime levels and local deprivation indicators, which may affect resale or rental prospects. The flat is small and best for those prioritising location and convenience over large living spaces. Viewings will suit buyers wanting an affordable, contemporary home close to the riverside and transport routes.
