Chain-free two-bedroom flat with bright rooms and balcony close to park and shops.
First-floor, chain-free two-bedroom flat with long lease (986 years)
Occupying the first floor of a well-kept end-terrace, this chain-free two-bedroom flat offers generous, flexible accommodation over an average-sized 882 sq ft. Two reception rooms and high ceilings give a sense of space uncommon for flats at this price point, while large windows and views over nearby allotment gardens and the local park bring light and a pleasant outlook.
The accommodation is thoughtfully laid out with a main reception room featuring a gas fire, a second reception with a deep storage cupboard, a fitted kitchen with integrated fridge freezer and a stable door to a small balcony/breakfasting yard. Two double bedrooms include built-in wardrobes to the principal bedroom, and the bathroom includes a bath with overhead shower plus adjacent dressing/vanity storage.
Practical strengths include a very long lease (986 years), mains gas central heating, double glazing (installed before 2002) and a low council tax Band A. The location suits first-time buyers and downsizers: Greenside village amenities, outstanding and good-rated schools, local bus routes and direct road links to the A1(M) and Newcastle are all within easy reach.
Important considerations: the property is leasehold, EPC rating is awaited, and the building dates from the early 20th century with solid brick walls likely without modern cavity insulation. Some cosmetic updating or targeted energy-efficiency improvements may be desired to reduce running costs. No parking information is provided, so viewers should check local arrangements if required.
