This recently refurbished two-bedroom, two-bathroom apartment in Newcastle city centre is offered vacant and ready for immediate occupation or let. The open-plan living area opens onto a wooden balcony with Quayside views; modern finishes include granite worktops, recessed lighting and limestone-effect tiling in the bathrooms. Included appliances and an ensuite to the master make the flat straightforward to move into.
Practical running costs and tenure details: leasehold with about 104 years remaining, ground rent circa £250 pa and service charge circa £2,120 pa. Heating is electric via room heaters rather than gas central heating, and the property is compact at about 614 sq ft — good for low-maintenance city living but less suitable for larger families.
The building offers three floors of underground parking with car lift, and an EPC rating of C. The location is highly convenient for transport, nightlife and amenities, but the immediate neighbourhood is a busy, cosmopolitan student area with very high local crime levels and marked area deprivation — factors to weigh for owner-occupiers and certain tenant types.
Overall this is a turnkey, low-upkeep city-centre apartment that will appeal to first-time buyers seeking a central home or investors wanting a let-ready unit; confirm budget for service charge and council tax before committing.
