Summary - PETHGATE COURT 4 CASTLE SQUARE MORPETH NE61 1YL
2 bed 1 bath Apartment
Characterful period apartment with long lease and low charges.
Ground-floor two-bedroom apartment in town-centre location
A spacious two-bedroom ground-floor apartment in the heart of Morpeth, set within a Grade II listed terrace on Castle Square. The flat offers a large lounge, a well-appointed kitchen/diner with island, two double bedrooms and a communal patio garden — all within easy walking distance of shops, cafés and transport links.
This property is offered via the Modern Method of Auction. Buyers should note the non-refundable reservation fee (4.5% of the purchase price, minimum £6,600) plus a compulsory Buyer Information Pack fee. The long lease (circa 957 years), no ground rent and a low service charge are genuine ownership advantages; completion is required within the auction reservation period.
Important practical points: the listed status will restrict alterations and may complicate conversions or improvements. The building has solid brick walls (likely no cavity insulation) so energy upgrades will be limited or require specialist listed-building consent. The area records very high crime levels — worth checking local statistics and security options before bidding.
This is a sensible opportunity for a first-time buyer or investor seeking a centrally located, characterful apartment with long lease security and low ongoing charges. If you plan to mortgage, arrange lender pre-approval and inspect the Buyer Information Pack before bidding, as auction purchases proceed on tight timescales.
