Large two-bed penthouse near Osborne Road — long lease and ready to personalise.
Over 1,000 sq ft penthouse space with winter garden
Discover a spacious two-bedroom penthouse in Blythswood, Jesmond, offering over 1,000 sq ft of bright, flexible living space. The apartment includes a large lounge with a winter garden, a separate kitchen, two double bedrooms and two bathrooms — the principal benefits from an en-suite. High ceilings and large windows create an airy feel suitable for professionals or first-time buyers seeking extra space.
Practical advantages include a very long lease (approximately 949 years), electric underfloor heating, double glazing and no flood risk. The location on Osborne Road places cafés, shops and Jesmond Metro within easy reach for commutes into Newcastle city centre. Local schools and a mix of students and professionals make the neighbourhood lively and well-served for amenities.
Notable costs and considerations are a leasehold tenure and an annual service charge of about £2,400. The building dates from the late 1960s/early 1970s; walls are cavity construction assumed without added insulation, and the glazing installation date is unknown — these factors may affect future energy costs and retrofit potential. Crime levels are above average for the area, and broadband speeds are reported as average.
This penthouse suits buyers who prioritise space, a strong central Jesmond location and a very long lease, while accepting ongoing service charges and some potential energy-efficiency upgrades. Viewings will help assess the condition and any refurbishment opportunities to personalise the apartment.
