An affordable three-bedroom upper flat in a Victorian mid-terrace on Chandos Street, offered at a low entry price. The flat has gas central heating, double glazing, a private rear yard and good transport links to Gateshead and Newcastle — practical positives for first-time buyers or landlords seeking rental income.
Accommodation is traditional in layout: lounge, kitchen, three bedrooms and a bathroom across about 704 sq ft. Rooms retain period character such as a feature fireplace but finishes are dated and the flat will benefit from modernization throughout. The property sits in a solid-brick terrace likely without modern cavity insulation, so buyers should budget for energy upgrades if desired.
Important drawbacks are factual: the area scores high for crime and is very deprived, the property is leasehold, and there is a public notice of offer/re-possession history recorded. The building’s glazing date is unknown and some internal works are needed to bring the flat to contemporary standards. Council tax is very cheap and broadband and mobile signals are strong.
This is a pragmatic purchase: ideal for a budget-conscious first-time buyer willing to update, or an investor targeting rental demand in a well-connected area. Buyers should carry out full checks on lease terms, service charges, and local safety/repair issues before committing.
