Located in the popular area of Blackhill, this spacious first floor apartment is an excellent opportunity for a wide range of buyers. Whether you're searching for your first home, downsizing, or looking for a smart investment, the property is available with vacant possession, offering flexibility to suit your plans.

Set on an upstairs corner plot, the apartment enjoys elevated views across the valley, creating a bright and open feel throughout. Inside, the layout includes two well-proportioned double bedrooms and a generous living room with plenty of space for both relaxing and dining.

The kitchen, while compact, is well laid out and benefits from a skylight that floods the space with natural light. A modern, low-maintenance bathroom completes the interior and offers everything needed for comfortable day-to-day living.

One of the highlights of this apartment is the additional space it offers. There's a spacious loft for storage, a private yard for outdoor use, and a private external storage cupboard just outside the front door – ideal for storing tools, paint, or seasonal items. These extra features add real value and practicality, especially for buyers looking for more than just standard apartment living.

The apartment also benefits from dedicated private parking, providing convenient off-street parking for residents or visitors.

The property is leasehold, with 125 years from 17 July 2003, and a ground rent of just £75 per year, keeping ongoing costs low. Its location in Blackhill is highly convenient, with local shops, amenities, and transport links all nearby, plus easy access to Consett town centre.

Currently, the property is tenanted, making it a great ready-made investment opportunity. If you're an investor looking to expand your portfolio, the existing tenant is happy to stay on. However, the property can also be sold with vacant possession if preferred, allowing flexibility for buyers wishing to move in themselves.
