Summary - 1 BRIGHTON GARDENS GATESHEAD NE8 4SN
3 bed 1 bath Maisonette
Spacious family living near Saltwell Park with long lease and low running costs.
Three double bedrooms across useful 1,051 sq ft layout
This spacious three-bedroom maisonette occupies roughly 1,051 sq ft in a Victorian mid-terrace on Brighton Gardens, close to Saltwell Park. The bay-fronted reception and large dining-kitchen create practical family living space, while a paved rear patio offers low-maintenance outdoor use. The property benefits from double glazing (unknown fit date), mains gas central heating and excellent mobile and broadband connectivity.
The long lease (984 years) and very low council tax make running costs attractive. The layout — large reception, generous bedrooms and a loft/dormer level — suits growing families or professionals seeking extra space near parks, schools and public transport. The location is in a comfortable neighbourhood pocket of an inner-city area with easy access to local amenities.
Buyers should note material negatives openly: the area records high crime levels and is relatively deprived, which will affect resale perceptions for some purchasers. The home's solid brick walls are assumed uninsulated, so short-term improvements (wall insulation or internal upgrades) may be needed to improve thermal efficiency. There is a single family bathroom and limited garden space, so families wanting extensive outdoor areas may find it constrained.
Overall this maisonette offers strong value for those prioritising space, long lease security and park-adjacent living, while accepting a need for some fabric improvements and the realities of the surrounding neighbourhood.
