Summary - 9, Mariners Point, NORTH SHIELDS NE30 4HR
1 bed 1 bath Apartment
Purpose-built over-55s home with modern finish and nearby village amenities.
Ground-floor one-bedroom retirement apartment, newly renovated
A neat, purpose-built one-bedroom apartment arranged on the ground floor of a popular over-55s development. The flat has been newly renovated and offers a modern kitchen and shower room, double glazing and electric storage heating, with views over well-kept communal gardens and resident parking on site. The very long lease (around 960 years) and chain-free sale give long-term security and an uncomplicated purchase.
The development sits close to Tynemouth Village amenities, cafes, the metro and beaches — useful for independent retirees seeking easy access to local services and leisure. The communal facilities and external grounds are low maintenance and provide pleasant outdoor space without private garden upkeep.
Practical points to note: heating is electric storage, running costs may be higher than gas alternatives. The annual service charge is approximately £2,869, and the area records higher crime levels locally, which some buyers will want to consider. Council tax costs are very low. Overall, this is a compact, well-presented retirement home suitable for a single occupant or couple wanting convenient, single-level living.
