A compact, well-presented two-bedroom third-floor apartment in Ochre Yards, sitting on the South Banks close to Gateshead Quayside. The flat is offered as a turn-key purchase with an open-plan living area, Juliet balcony, integrated kitchen appliances and lift access — a practical choice for a first home or buy-to-let.
Practical features include allocated and visitor parking, communal gardens and a 105-year lease. There is no onward chain, making the purchase process potentially quicker. The accommodation is modest in size (approximately 606 sq ft) but laid out for straightforward living with two double bedrooms and one bathroom.
Buyers should note the material running costs and local context: an annual service charge of about £2,115.70 and ground rent of £192.14, plus the property uses electric room heaters rather than gas central heating. The wider neighbourhood is classified as a cosmopolitan student/commuter area with higher local crime figures and signs of deprivation — factors that can affect rental demand and resale perception.
Overall, the apartment offers an accessible, city-edge base with parking and easy access to Newcastle city centre and the Quayside. It suits first-time buyers wanting a manageable home close to amenities, or investors seeking a straightforward let, provided they budget for service charges and confirm heating and safety systems with a survey.
