A spacious two-bedroom ground-floor flat in a Victorian mid-terrace, quietly tucked near Saltwell Park with strong transport links to Gateshead, Newcastle and Team Valley. The home combines period exterior charm with a refitted modern kitchen and an updated bathroom, plus UPVC double glazing and gas central heating for everyday comfort.
The property benefits from an unusually large, powered basement divided into three areas — useful for storage, a workshop or conversion subject to necessary checks — and a decked rear sitting area with a covered section currently housing a hot tub. With 972 years remaining on the lease and a low Council Tax Band A, running costs are likely to be modest.
Practical considerations are clear: the building dates from circa 1900–1929 with assumed solid brick walls and no installed wall insulation, and the wider neighbourhood records above-average crime and higher area deprivation. Buyers should inspect the basement and overall condition in person to confirm any maintenance or upgrade needs, particularly thermal improvements or damp checks common to older terraces.
This home will suit first-time buyers wanting an affordable entry into a well-connected part of Gateshead or investors seeking rental potential close to amenities and good local schools. It offers immediate liveability with scope for cosmetic or energy-efficiency enhancements to increase value over time.
