Contemporary two-bed with balcony, parking and riverside walks — affordable first home..
South-west facing private balcony with French door access
Light-filled top-floor apartment with a private south-west facing balcony and open-plan living — ideal for first-time buyers seeking a contemporary, low-maintenance home. The living space flows into a modern kitchen with integrated appliances, while two double bedrooms and two bathrooms make the layout flexible for couples, sharers or home-working. Off-street parking and a secure bike shed add everyday convenience.
Practical details support long-term ownership: gas central heating, double glazing and a remaining lease of 108 years. EPC rating C and council tax band A keep running costs relatively modest. The property sits near riverside walks and public transport links, with the city centre and Quayside accessible by bike or bus.
Be clear about the local realities: the wider area shows high crime levels and marked deprivation, and broadband speeds are slow. This is a neighbourhood with challenges, so buyers should consider personal safety measures and check connectivity options. As a leasehold apartment in a modern block, communal maintenance and management arrangements will affect future costs — review service charges and ground rent before committing.
For a first-time buyer seeking an affordable, contemporary two-bedroom near the Tyne, this apartment offers strong practical value and immediate move-in readiness, balanced by clear local and connectivity drawbacks that deserve careful consideration.
