Newly renovated one-bedroom with courtyard and parking — ideal for first-time buyers or investors.
Newly renovated one-bedroom ground-floor apartment
A smart, newly renovated one-bedroom ground-floor apartment offering practical city living in The Staiths, Gateshead. The flat has a fitted kitchen, modern bathroom and an enclosed courtyard for outdoor seating — useful for fresh air without garden upkeep. Allocated off-street parking and a 127-year lease add convenience and long-term security.
This property is compact (circa 506 sq ft) and suits first-time buyers, downsizers or buy-to-let investors seeking a low-maintenance home close to urban amenities and good transport links. The EPC C and double glazing help efficiency, though the main heating is electric room heaters rather than a gas central system.
Be clear about local factors: the neighbourhood shows higher crime levels and area deprivation indicators, so buyers prioritising low-crime locations should consider this carefully. Service charge (£335) and small ground rent (£100) apply; council tax is very low (Band A), which helps running costs.
Overall, this is a practical, move-in-ready apartment offering value for buyers wanting an affordable, modern one-bed with private outdoor space and parking. It’s particularly suited to those who value convenience and minimal maintenance over a large footprint or full gas heating.
