Light, practical and well-located, this first-floor two-bedroom apartment offers a straightforward entry into homeownership. The open-plan living space includes an integrated kitchen and Juliet balcony that brings in natural light, while two bedrooms and a single bathroom serve everyday needs neatly. An allocated parking space and communal landscaped gardens add convenience and outdoor space.
The home has been finished to a modern standard and benefits from double glazing, mains gas central heating and an EPC rating of C. The lease has around 118 years remaining, there is no ground rent, and the most recent service charge was £1,340.63 for the year. Council Tax Band A keeps ongoing costs low.
Important considerations: the building dates from the late 1960s/early 1970s and external walls are assumed to be uninsulated cavity construction, which may affect running costs and future insulation work. The property sits in an area with very high crime statistics and higher local deprivation indicators, which could concern some buyers or affect resale/rental appeal.
This apartment suits a first-time buyer or investor seeking a compact, ready-to-move-in home close to Whickham and major transport links including the A1 and Metrocentre. It offers immediate convenience and scope to improve energy performance or decor over time.
