This ground-floor two-bedroom flat on Benfield Road offers a generous private rear garden and comfortable living across approximately 636 sq ft. It sits in a well-regarded Heaton neighbourhood close to local shops, buses and good primary and secondary schools — an appealing choice for first-time buyers or downsizers.
The layout is traditional with a bright bay-fronted double bedroom, second flexible bedroom, living room with a feature fireplace and a practical kitchen leading to a modern bathroom with a walk-in shower. The large private garden is an uncommon asset for a flat and provides valuable outdoor living and gardening space.
Practical details support easy occupation: the property is chain free, has mains gas central heating via boiler and radiators, double glazing, and a very long lease (969 years remaining). Council Tax Band A is relatively low at around £1,607.73 per year.
Buyers should note the property is leasehold (long lease) and currently rated EPC D. The flat is presented as well-maintained but remains an average-sized ground-floor flat within a semi-detached building from the 1930s–1940s era — any buyer wanting full modernisation should allow for cosmetic updating rather than major structural work.
Overall this is a straightforward, value-focused home with rare garden space for a ground-floor flat, suited to those wanting a move-in-ready start in Heaton with scope to add personal finishes over time.
