Summary - 31 THE ROPERY NEWCASTLE UPON TYNE NE6 1TY
1 bed 1 bath Apartment
Compact riverside home with parking, long lease and easy city access.
Ground-floor one-bedroom with private patio and small garden
Set on the ground floor of the St. Peters’ Basin development, this one-bedroom apartment offers a compact, riverside home with easy access to the Marina, Cycle Route 72 and Newcastle Quayside. The living room and fitted kitchen provide practical everyday space, while patio doors from the double bedroom open onto a private rear patio and small garden — ideal for morning coffee or pot plants.
Practical benefits include an allocated off-street parking bay, a long lease (approximately 153 years remaining) and low ground rent (£25). Council Tax sits in band C and the EPC is rated D; heating is electric via room heaters, which keeps installation simple but can increase running costs compared with gas.
Buyers should note the property sits in a very deprived area with a high local crime score; nearby amenities and excellent transport links partly offset this for commuters and those seeking waterside living. The flat is suited to first-time buyers, professionals, or downsizers wanting an affordable entry into the city’s riverside neighbourhood, and it also offers straightforward rental potential for investors.
Overall this is a practical, well-located flat with immediate usability and scope for modest cosmetic improvement. Viewings are recommended to judge the location and internal condition for yourself, and to compare running costs given the electric heating and EPC rating.
