Summary - 7 RICHMOND COURT GATESHEAD NE9 5JG
2 bed 1 bath Flat
Compact, low-maintenance two-bedroom starter flat near shops and transport.
Park-facing first-floor apartment with pleasant outlook
A bright first-floor apartment in Richmond Court, set above Kells Lane Park, this two-bedroom flat suits a first-time buyer seeking a low-maintenance starter home. The living room has a feature fireplace and a pleasant outlook, while the main bedroom includes built-in wardrobes for tidy storage. The recently fitted wet room and a practical kitchen with integrated oven and fridge/freezer add modern convenience.
The building offers a secure communal entrance, well-kept communal grounds and off-street parking — useful extras in a busy neighbourhood. The lease is long (993 years), so there is little immediate leasehold concern, and council tax is described as affordable. Local bus links, shops, cafes and several well-rated primary schools are all within easy reach, making day-to-day life straightforward.
Notable practical points are that heating is by electric storage heaters and the property is modest in size (about 463 sq ft). Crime levels are recorded as above average for the area, and the flat is leasehold. These are important considerations for budgeting and security planning.
Overall, this flat offers an accessible entry onto the housing ladder with attractive communal amenities, park views and straightforward accommodation. It will appeal to buyers who prioritise location, low upkeep and a ready-to-live-in home, and who are comfortable with electric heating and a compact footprint.
