Summary - Alma Place, North Shields, Tyne and Wear, NE29 0LY NE29 0LY
2 bed 1 bath Ground Flat
Spacious two-bedroom home close to coast and Metro links.
Two double bedrooms with high ceilings and period character
This ground-floor two-bedroom flat sits in a Victorian mid-terrace close to Tynemouth village and North Shields amenities, offering generous rooms, high ceilings and clear period character. The layout feels spacious for its size, with a bright bay-front living room, a modern fitted kitchen with integrated appliances, and a contemporary bathroom. A large shared yard provides outdoor space without private garden upkeep.
Practical strengths include a very long lease (958 years), mains gas central heating, double glazing, fast broadband and excellent public transport links via the nearby Metro. Council tax is low and the location places shops, cafés, the Fish Quay and coastal walks within easy reach — appealing for first-time buyers or professionals wanting seaside living and strong connectivity.
Buyers should note material facts: the property is leasehold and will be sold via online auction (fees apply). There are signs of possible damp in the living room and the building’s solid brick construction likely lacks cavity insulation, which may mean future energy-efficiency or repair works. Double-glazing install dates are unknown. These issues are typical for older Victorian properties and should be inspected before purchase.
Overall, this flat offers period charm, useful living space and coastal convenience with a long lease. It suits someone prepared for typical upkeep or modest refurbishment to improve thermal performance and address the noted damp, and who understands auction sale terms and associated fees.
