Move-in ready décor; medium-sized living room and bedroom
Council tax band A — very cheap running cost
Long lease (976 years) removes common leasehold risk
Service charge £840 pa (below average)
Electric storage heating and electric main fuel — potential upgrade cost
Double glazing present; install date unknown
Built 1967–75; characterful 1960s modernist block
Set on the top floor, this well-presented one-bedroom apartment offers an economical entry into the Newcastle market. The reception room benefits from a large front window and unobstructed views, creating a bright, comfortable living space. Neutral décor and laminate flooring mean the flat is largely move-in ready.
Practical running costs are a selling point: council tax band A and a below-average service charge of £840. The long lease (976 years) removes common leasehold concerns and suits both first-time buyers and buy-to-let investors. Communal areas are maintained and on-street parking is available nearby.
The property is heated by electric storage heaters and uses electricity as the main fuel source; buyers wanting gas central heating should factor potential upgrade costs. Double glazing is fitted but the install date is unknown. Constructed in the late 1960s/early 1970s, the block reflects that era’s modernist style and is of cavity wall construction.
Location is practical for commuters and local life: good bus links, nearby primary and secondary schools rated Good by Ofsted, and easy access to the A1 and A69. Overall this apartment suits someone seeking a low-cost, low-maintenance home or an investor after a straightforward rental-ready property.
