This ground-floor two-bedroom flat offers an affordable entry into Fenham with private gardens front and rear and easy access to local transport. The layout includes a hallway, lounge, kitchen, two bedrooms and a bathroom—an sensible size for first-time buyers or buy-to-let purchasers wanting straightforward accommodation.
Practical running costs are low: Council Tax Band A and modest service charge (£255.30pa). The property benefits from double glazing and gas central heating; the Energy Performance Certificate is D. The 93-year lease (as at Oct 2025) and nominal ground rent (£10pa) are manageable but should be checked with your solicitor before committing.
Location strengths include close public transport links to Newcastle city centre and good broadband and mobile coverage. Note the neighbourhood context: local deprivation and above-average crime statistics mean you should visit at different times and consider security measures. A mining search is also recommended due to regional history.
The flat suits buyers looking for an affordable starter home or an investor seeking a let-ready layout. Some updating would improve comfort and energy performance; the property represents clear potential for modest refurbishment to add value.
