Summary - 28A ESPLANADE WHITLEY BAY NE26 2AL
2 bed 1 bath Apartment
Victorian two-bed ground-floor flat, minutes from the beach — scope to upgrade and personalise..
Two-minute walk to Whitley Bay beach
Step off the Esplanade and into this well-presented two-bedroom ground-floor flat, just a two-minute walk from Whitley Bay beach. The apartment sits in a Victorian mid-terrace with high ceilings, a bay-windowed lounge and period character that suits buyers wanting coastal living with scope to personalise.
The layout includes an entrance hall, large bay lounge with living-flame gas fire, fitted kitchen, contemporary bathroom with rainfall shower, two double bedrooms and a private rear yard. At about 722 sq ft, the flat feels comfortably sized for couples, first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors seeking reliable rental demand close to transport and local amenities.
Practical facts: the property is leasehold with on-street parking, mains gas central heating and double glazing (install date not provided). The building dates from 1900–1929 with solid brick walls and assumed little or no wall insulation — energy efficiency and insulation upgrades are likely worthwhile investments.
Be candidly aware of local context: the immediate area scores high for deprivation and crime levels are very high, which will affect longer-term desirability and insurance/tenancy considerations. Council Tax Band A keeps running costs low. This flat offers seaside location and period charm, balanced by potential improvement works and local area challenges.
