Accessible starter flat with garden and long lease near Saltwell Park.
Two bedrooms with high ceilings and bay-windowed living room
Set within a Victorian terrace, this two-bedroom ground-floor flat offers an accessible, characterful starter home or rental addition. High ceilings and a bay-windowed living room bring period charm, while recent double glazing and gas central heating improve comfort and efficiency.
The layout is practical: entrance hallway linking a spacious living room, two bedrooms, tiled bathroom with shower-over-bath, and a fitted kitchen with oven, gas hob and rear yard access. Externally there is a front garden and an enclosed shared rear yard suitable for seating, storage or low-maintenance planting.
The long Tyneside lease (approx. 960 years remaining) and no known ground rent or service charges make for straightforward ownership; broadband and mobile signals are good. The area provides easy access to Saltwell Park, local amenities and transport links, appealing to first-time buyers and buy-to-let investors.
Be realistic about renovation: the property is average-sized (approx. 635 sq ft) and built with solid brick walls likely without cavity insulation, so further thermal improvements may be needed. The neighbourhood faces higher-than-average crime rates and local deprivation, which should be considered when evaluating suitability and rental prospects.
