Set on the fourth floor of The Stephenson at Dunston Quays, this recently refurbished two-bedroom apartment offers bright, open-plan living with two private balconies and direct River Tyne views. The contemporary L-shaped kitchen features marble worktops and integrated appliances, while herringbone-style flooring and a fully tiled modern bathroom complete the internal presentation.
Practical features include lift access, allocated off-street parking, integrated hallway storage and a long lease (approx. 127 years remaining). The building has double glazing and an EPC rating of C, so running costs are reasonable, though main heating is by electric room heaters which may cost more than gas alternatives.
The property is compact (circa 609 sq ft) and has no private garden, making it well suited to first-time buyers, young professionals or investors seeking a low-maintenance riverside home with strong amenity access. The development sits beside riverside walkways, green space and local cafés, with good transport links to Newcastle and the Metrocentre.
Buyers should note the wider area scores high on local crime and deprivation indexes; prospective purchasers should view in person to assess the neighbourhood feel. The apartment is chain-free and ready to move into, but its smaller footprint and electric heating are important practical considerations.
