Set within the converted Baltic Flour Mill, this two-bedroom apartment combines industrial character with contemporary living. High ceilings and large feature windows create a light, airy living space with partial river views. The open-plan kitchen and lounge suit downsizers or professionals seeking a well-connected city base close to the Quayside and cultural attractions.
Practical benefits include a long lease of circa 226 years, an allocated off-street parking space and two bathrooms (en-suite to the master). Annual costs include a service charge of about £3,123 and a modest ground rent of £150.
Be frank about running costs and location: heating is by electric room heaters (no communal gas) and glazing details are unknown, which may affect bills. The immediate area is an inner-city, multicultural student neighbourhood with very high crime and signs of local deprivation — factors to weigh for buyers prioritising safety, resale or rental stability.
For the right buyer this apartment offers a stylish, low-maintenance city base with period character and long lease security. It’s especially suitable for downsizers or professionals who value proximity to Newcastle city centre, the BALTIC art centre and transport links, but buyers should budget for higher living costs and consider the neighbourhood profile.
