Priced at £65,000, this two-bedroom upper-flat offers a straightforward freehold purchase across 722 sq ft — a compact, low-cost entry for buy-to-let investors. Located close to Blyth and local amenities, it benefits from good transport links to Newcastle and fast broadband, making it suitable for long-term lets or a modest refurbish-and-let strategy.
The accommodation comprises a living room, kitchen, two bedrooms and a bathroom, with a small low-maintenance rear courtyard and on-street parking to the front. Construction dates to the early 20th century with solid brick walls; the property has double glazing (unknown install date) and gas central heating via boiler and radiators.
Important considerations: the solid brick walls are assumed uninsulated, so energy-efficiency work may be needed to improve EPC and reduce running costs. The area is classified as deprived with average crime levels; these factors will influence rental yields and tenant demand. Council tax costs are very low, which reduces holding costs but can reflect local funding levels.
For investors seeking an affordable buy-in to Bedlington’s rental market, this freehold two-bed offers clear upside through modest modernisation and insulation improvements. It is marketed to purchasers prepared to manage refurbishment and tenant sourcing in a working-class neighbourhood with regeneration potential nearby.
