Characterful two-bedroom first-floor apartment near Jesmond — chain free, strong rental appeal.
Grade II listed first-floor apartment, built 1840
A compact, characterful two-bedroom first-floor apartment in a Grade II listed Victorian terrace, tucked away between Jesmond and Newcastle city centre. The apartment has high ceilings, original period detailing and a thoughtfully arranged open-plan reception that makes the most of 592 sq ft. A communal west-facing garden and permit on-street parking add practical outside space in this central location.
This presents clear appeal for investors or students seeking proximity to universities and city amenities: the area is a recognised student neighbourhood with fast broadband and excellent mobile signal, and the property is being offered chain free. The interior benefits from secondary glazing and gas central heating, and the layout includes two double bedrooms and a single well-appointed bathroom.
Buyers should note material constraints: the building’s Grade II listed status will limit alterations and can complicate permissions and maintenance. The flat is leasehold with 95 years remaining and an average service charge of around £2,000 per year. The property’s solid brick construction likely has no wall insulation (assumed) which, together with secondary glazing only, may mean higher heating costs or future retrofit work.
Other practical considerations: the area records very high crime levels (local statistics) and on-street permit parking only. These factual negatives affect suitability for some owner-occupiers but do not remove its investment potential given the rental demand in this part of Jesmond. Prospective buyers are advised to review the full Material Information Report before proceeding.
