Chain-free two-bed ground-floor flat with private yard — strong rental potential..
Ground-floor two-bedroom flat with high Victorian ceilings
A spacious two-bedroom ground-floor flat in Fenham, offered chain-free and with long leasehold tenure (999 years from 1986). The flat occupies a Victorian red-brick terrace and benefits from high ceilings, a large bay-windowed living room with fireplace, and a private rear yard — features that appeal to renters and buyers seeking character. Its location provides quick access to West Road amenities, local schools, good bus links and links to the A1, making it practical for city workers and students.
This property suits investors or first-time buyers looking for rental income or an affordable entry into Newcastle. The layout includes two generous bedrooms, a spacious lounge leading to a kitchen and rear yard, plus a bathroom off the kitchen. Broadband and mobile signal are strong in the area, and council tax is low (Band A).
Buyers should note material issues: the living room description flags mould and ‘‘fixer-upper’’ condition, and the EPC is rated D, indicating potential energy-efficiency improvements. The flat is leasehold, and the wider area records above-average crime — factors to consider for long-term rental appeal and repair costs. Viewing is advised to judge scope of renovation and to confirm condition of services and finishes.
With sensible investment in improvements (insulation, addressing mould, and streamlining the kitchen/bathroom), the property offers rental potential in a popular west Newcastle neighbourhood close to shops, schools and public transport.
