This bright ground-floor flat offers two double bedrooms, a modern fitted kitchen and a private rear garden — an attractive package for a first-time buyer or investor. The living spaces are fresh and practical, with UPVC double glazing, gas central heating and a stylish shower bathroom. Off-street parking for two cars on the driveway adds everyday convenience.
The property sits in a well-connected area with fast broadband, excellent mobile signal and easy access to the coast road, metro and bus routes. Local green spaces such as Paddy Freeman's Park and Jesmond Dene plus several highly rated schools provide excellent lifestyle and resale appeal. The flat is wheelchair-suitable, increasing accessibility options for a wide range of buyers.
Important factual points to note: the flat is leasehold (999 years from 2019; 993 years remaining). There is no ground rent or service charge, but building insurance is currently £39.61 per month (next review October 2025). An EPC rating of C means reasonable efficiency but not best-in-class. Because this is in a former mining region, a mining search is recommended and should be confirmed by your conveyancer.
Overall, this property combines low running costs, useful outdoor space and solid local amenities. It suits a buyer seeking an affordable, ready-to-live-in home with straightforward investment or first-home potential, while being transparent about leasehold status, insurance costs and the suggested mining search.
