Summary - ROYAL SOVEREIGN HOUSE 2 MANCHESTER STREET MORPETH NE61 1AF
2 bed 2 bath Apartment
Well-presented town-centre flat with secure parking and no onward chain.
First-floor two-bedroom apartment with en-suite and separate bathroom
Set on the first floor of a modern mixed-use building in central Morpeth, this well-kept two-bedroom apartment offers straightforward town-centre living with secure allocated parking. The layout includes a generous lounge/dining room, a modern fitted kitchen, an en‑suite to the master and a separate family bathroom — practical for couples, first-time buyers or buy-to-let purchasers. With 979 years remaining on the lease and no onward chain, the purchase process should be simple and long-term ownership secure.
Practical running costs are clear: an EPC rating of C, mains gas central heating and double glazing (installed before 2002). Service charges are approximately £1,500 per year (c. £125 pcm) and council tax sits in Band D. The property benefits from lift access and lower-ground secure parking, rare for a town-centre flat of this size.
Buyers should note a few material points. The building sits on a busy town street and the local recorded crime level is very high — this affects suitability for those seeking quiet or very low-risk locations. The glazing is older and the service charge and communal arrangements should be checked by solicitors. Otherwise the apartment is presented in good decorative order and is largely move-in ready.
Location is a key selling point: shops, cafés, schools (including a local outstanding secondary) and Morpeth station are all within easy walking distance, with good A1 road links for commuters. The flat will appeal to first-time buyers wanting central convenience, investors seeking a lettable two-bedroom, or downsizers wanting low-maintenance living close to local amenities.
