Summary - The Cedars NE4 7DX NE4 7DX
1 bed 1 bath Apartment
Affordable central flat with lift access and strong broadband—ideal for cash buyers or landlords.
Allocated off-street parking bay included
Set on an upper floor of The Cedars development, this compact one-bedroom apartment offers elevated views across Newcastle and Gateshead. The open-plan lounge/kitchen benefits from large windows that bring in plenty of natural light; allocated off-street parking, lift access and video intercom add everyday convenience. Broadband speeds and mobile signal are strong, and central/council costs are low, making it straightforward to occupy or let.
The layout is efficient: a generous bedroom, open-plan living space and a practical bathroom with shower-over-bath. The fitted kitchen has designated appliance spaces and a freestanding oven and hob, so the flat is ready to move into with minimal immediate work. The building is a system-built block from the late 1970s/early 1980s with external insulation and community heating—functional but typical of that era.
Important considerations are factual: the property is leasehold (112 years remaining) with an estimated service charge around £1,000 and a small ground rent (£50). The surrounding neighbourhood is classed as very deprived with higher-than-average crime, which will affect long-term demand and rental values. Double glazing is present but the installation date is unknown; potential buyers should also note the community heating arrangement and the construction type when making valuation or refurbishment plans.
At £60,000 this flat will suit a cash buyer, a buy-to-let investor seeking an affordable city-centre entry, or a first-time buyer prepared to accept the area profile. It delivers practical city living with good transport links, but buyers should factor in service charges, local area challenges and the building’s age when budgeting.
