About
A beautifully remodelled maisonette where virtually every detail has been considered, combining an impressive new loft conversion with a stylish interior and flexible living space.
Having undergone substantial refurbishment, the property is presented to an exceptional standard throughout.
Works include a full electrical rewire, new central heating system and boiler with seven-year warranty, new oak internal doors, oak flooring and carpets, alongside an architect-designed loft conversion.
The main living level centres around a superb open-plan kitchen and dining space, finished with shaker-style cabinetry, solid oak worktops, integrated dishwasher and fridge/freezer, contrasting black fittings and a central peninsula.
The generous space is ideal for dining, entertaining and everyday family life. A separate utility room provides additional storage and laundry space, while a newly fitted WC adds further practicality.
The separate lounge is beautifully presented, retaining attractive period proportions alongside a contemporary finish.
With the kitchen/diner capable of accommodating a larger living area, the lounge also offers flexibility to become an additional bedroom if required.
The newly created loft floor is a standout feature.
Designed by an architect and constructed to comply with 2026 Building Regulations, it incorporates traditional-style dormer detailing to the front and a substantial rear dormer finished in contemporary anthracite cladding.
This level provides an impressive principal bedroom with walk-in wardrobe, a further bedroom and striking new bathroom.
The bathroom features a freestanding bath with wall-mounted taps, walk-in wet-room style shower with built-in niche, wall-mounted vanity with countertop basin and stylish black fittings throughout.
Externally, the property benefits from its own rear outdoor space, enhanced by new decking to create an attractive, low-maintenance seating and entertaining area.
Location - Rodsley Avenue is ideally positioned between Bensham and Saltwell, placing a wide range of everyday amenities within easy reach while remaining particularly convenient for Newcastle city centre.
Local shops and services can be found around Coatsworth Road and Saltwell Road, with Gateshead town centre also readily accessible.
A major attraction of the location is the proximity to Saltwell Park, one of Gateshead's best-loved green spaces.
The historic 55-acre Victorian park provides extensive gardens and woodland, a boating lake, children's play areas, walking routes, tennis courts and the impressive Saltwell Towers.
The area is also particularly well connected.
Regular bus services operate through Saltwell and Bensham towards Gateshead Interchange, Newcastle city centre, the Quayside and Central Station, while Gateshead Metro provides onward connections across Tyneside.
Road links are equally convenient, with straightforward access towards Newcastle, Team Valley and the A1, making Rodsley Avenue a strong choice for those commuting throughout the region.
