A ground-floor, two-bedroom retirement flat set in a modern block, offered with allocated off-street parking and communal gardens. The building dates from the early 2000s and benefits from double glazing; the apartment suits someone seeking a compact, low-maintenance home close to local amenities in Blyth.
The interior is compact but practical: a living room, fitted kitchen, two bedrooms and a bathroom within approximately 548 sq ft. Heating is by electric room heaters, and the property is powered by electricity rather than gas — sensible for occasional occupants but likely to increase running costs compared with gas central heating. The flat is leasehold with 104 years remaining and an annual service charge of about £1,800.
This property is marketed for over-50s only and will appeal to downsizers who prioritise convenience and a small, manageable footprint. Be aware the local area is classified as very deprived with above-average crime rates; buyers should consider security and personal safety measures. Broadband speeds are average and mobile signal is excellent.
Overall, this is a straightforward retirement purchase offering convenience, allocated parking and communal outdoor space. It’s best suited to buyers looking for a modest, ready-to-live-in flat who accept electric heating, a notable service charge, and the local area's socio-economic challenges.
