Designed exclusively for the over‑60s, this two‑bedroom second‑floor apartment in Highbridge, Gosforth, offers safe, sociable retirement living close to Gosforth and Newcastle city centre. The building benefits from a secure entry system, lift access, a resident house manager and a 24‑hour care line, giving practical peace of mind for independent living.
Inside, the apartment is comfortable and well presented with a traditional living room and electric fire, a modern gloss kitchen with natural light, two bedrooms (one with a fitted wardrobe) and a shower room. At about 668 sq ft the layout is manageable for downsizers who want space without excessive upkeep; storage is helped by a hallway cupboard and communal laundry facilities.
Residents enjoy well‑kept communal gardens and a regular programme of socialising in the communal lounge, which helps build a friendly community feel. Broadband and mobile coverage are good, and the property sits in a very affluent, low‑crime area with easy access to local amenities and transport.
Important practical points: the property is leasehold (around 100 years remaining) and uses electric storage heaters, which can be more expensive than gas central heating. The shower room is compact and the home sits within a communal retirement scheme — buyers should be comfortable with communal living arrangements. Given the region’s mining history, the seller recommends legal checks about potential mining implications.
