Set on the top floor of a handsome stone building in historic Warkworth, this two-bedroom penthouse offers easy, low-maintenance village living with a rare castle view from the lounge. The apartment is well presented and arranged over a single level, with a generous lounge/dining room, a fitted kitchen, two double bedrooms and an en-suite to the main bedroom. Allocated parking and a communal courtyard add practical convenience.
The leasehold details are important to note: 125 years from 1 January 2006 (about 106 years remaining), ground rent £150 pa (planned step increases every 25 years), and a service charge of £2,315.80 pa. Holiday letting is not permitted for these apartments. Prospective buyers should verify lease and management arrangements with their legal advisor before committing.
For buyers seeking a quieter life or a lock-up-and-leave second home, the location is a strong draw — boutique shops, cafés, riverside walks and village events are all within walking distance, and transport links to Alnwick, Morpeth and the mainline at Alnmouth are accessible. Practical notes: the property sits on a known coalfield (confirmation advised), has sloping ceilings throughout the apartment, and sits in an area with above-average recorded crime relative to nearby areas.
