Summary - Vallum House, Westgate NE49 9AF
4 bed 1 bath Apartment
Central first-floor apartment with balcony and clear rental potential.
Four bedrooms on first floor with private balcony and street views
Long lease (998 years); low ground rent (£100) and service charge (£400)
Central Haltwhistle location — shops, transport and amenities on the doorstep
Open-plan kitchen with French doors; integrated oven and washer plumbing present
EPC D and solid brick walls; assumed no wall insulation (energy improvement needed)
No private garden or off-street parking visible from the property
Slow broadband speeds; area classed as deprived — affects some buyers/tenants
Some economical finishes (flooring) — potential for immediate uplift by refurbishment
This first-floor apartment occupies a convenient town-centre position in Haltwhistle, with immediate access to shops, café culture and public transport. The layout offers four well-proportioned bedrooms, a bright sitting room and an open-plan kitchen with French doors onto a private balcony — useful for fresh air and extra storage.
The property is presented to a generally good standard with shaker-style kitchen units, integrated oven, plumbing for a washing machine and a modern walk-in shower room. Long lease (998 years), modest service charge (£400 pa) and low ground rent (£100 pa) support straightforward ownership or letting, and the building’s mixed commercial frontage gives potential income or owner-occupation flexibility.
Buyers should note material drawbacks: the building is solid-brick with assumed no wall insulation, the EPC is rated D, broadband speeds are slow and there is no private garden or obvious off-street parking. The wider area scores as deprived and the property would benefit from cosmetic upgrading in places (economical floor finishes noted) to maximise rental or resale value.
This apartment will suit investors seeking a multi-bedroom town-centre let or purchasers wanting low-maintenance central living with scope to increase value through targeted improvements. No onward chain makes for a quicker purchase process.
