Set over two light-filled storeys, this period maisonette combines generous room sizes with a flexible layout suited to first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors. The ground floor offers a bright living/dining room and a fitted kitchen, with a handy rear yard for storage or outdoor space. A home office/dressing room and two bedrooms sit on the first floor, while an independent staircase leads to a larger third-bedroom space on the second floor.
Practical features include gas central heating with a boiler and radiators, double glazing, and an exceptionally long lease (976 years). There is no onward chain, which simplifies the purchase. Local amenities are close by in Bensham, with frequent bus links into Central Gateshead and Newcastle City Centre, good mobile signal and fast broadband — all positives for working-from-home households and renters.
Buyers should note the property is leasehold and sits in a very deprived area, which may affect long-term resale values. The building is an early 20th-century mid-terrace with solid brick walls and no known cavity insulation (assumed), so buyers may wish to budget for insulation improvements. The home currently has one bathroom and the EPC rating is TBC, so energy-running costs are uncertain until a certificate is obtained.
Overall, this maisonette offers an affordable entry into Gateshead with flexible accommodation and clear rental potential given nearby schools and transport. It’s well suited for buyers seeking a straightforward purchase to move in, modernise over time, or let out to meet local demand.
