A well-presented two-bedroom upper-floor flat in Tyne Dock offering an affordable, ready-to-move-in home or rental opportunity. The accommodation has been recently refurbished with fresh decoration and new carpets throughout, and benefits from double glazing, mains gas central heating and an EPC rating of C.
Situated a short walk from Tyne Dock Metro, local shops and major road links (A19), the location suits commuters and first-time buyers who value convenience. The layout includes a spacious lounge, fitted kitchen, two bedrooms and a bathroom, plus a private rear yard for outdoor use.
The property is sold freehold with vacant possession and no onward chain, simplifying purchase. Practical positives include low council tax (Band A), good mobile and broadband availability and the potential for steady rental income for investors.
Buyers should note material local and property considerations: the wider area is classified as very deprived with above-average crime; the building dates from c.1900–1929 and descriptions reference cosmetic wear and roof issues. Walls are cavity construction with assumed no added insulation, which may mean ongoing energy-improvement works. Stairs to the upper floor may limit accessibility for some buyers.
This flat represents a cost-effective entry point to the market — bring buyers’ solicitors and surveyors to verify tenure and services and to assess roof and insulation priorities. Early viewing is recommended to judge size, condition and location for either home use or letting purposes.
