This well-presented first-floor apartment in Cromwell Court is designed for over-50s seeking low-maintenance living close to Blyth town centre and the coast. The flat offers a bright lounge/diner with double doors to a Juliette balcony overlooking maintained communal gardens, two double bedrooms with built-in storage and a compact fitted kitchen — all arranged off a secure communal entrance with lift access.
Practical benefits include a designated parking bay, lift-served floors and a long lease (approximately 105 years remaining), plus no upper chain for a quicker move. The development sits in gated grounds with landscaped communal areas and is a short drive from Blyth Beach and local shops; South Newsham rail station provides fast journeys to Newcastle.
Buyers should note this is a small-to-average-sized apartment (circa 599 sq ft) heated by individual electric room heaters rather than a central gas system. The property is leasehold, aimed at the over-50s, and the surrounding area records higher-than-average crime levels and marked social deprivation; these factors may affect resale and rental demand.
Overall, the apartment will suit a purchaser prioritising convenience, coastal access and low external maintenance. It may also appeal to investors seeking a straightforward retirement-let asset, though consideration should be given to heating costs and local area characteristics.
