Summary - 49 MACDONALD ROAD NEWCASTLE UPON TYNE NE4 8XU
1 bed 1 bath Ground Flat
Chain-free one-bedroom near Newcastle and Metrocentre, ideal for rental conversion.
Chain-free freehold one-bedroom ground-floor flat
A compact one-bedroom ground-floor flat offered chain-free and freehold, positioned close to Newcastle city centre and the Metrocentre. The flat has clear rental appeal thanks to good transport links, fast broadband, and an enclosed rear yard for practical outdoor use. Council tax is very low, and there is no flooding risk.
The interior includes a bay-windowed living room and a bedroom that both receive good natural light, a contemporary-style kitchen with white goods and a breakfast bar, plus a small utility area with rear access. Overall footprint is modest (about 603 sq ft) and the layout is traditional—suitable for a single tenant or couple once updated.
Important considerations: the property needs renovation and some TLC before occupation or re-letting. The surrounding area is described as very deprived with high local crime rates and classified as a hampered neighbourhood, which may affect rental values and tenant demand. These realities are reflected in the low asking price, presenting potential for a higher yield for buyers prepared to invest in refurbishment.
