Buyers aim to hit Wickets.

Investors planning to buy an apartment to rent could snap up a superb offer from housebuilder Barratt, who is offering its final property at The Wickets in Gosforth.

To the purchaser of this luxury three-bedroom ground floor apartment, priced at pounds 250,000, Barratt will offer a pounds 1,500-a-month rental guarantee for two years.

The property will also come with fitted kitchen, carpets, curtains, light fittings, wardrobes, secure entry-phone system, parking space and peaceful views across the adjoining cricket ground.

Barratt field sales manager Dawn Mordue said: "The Wickets is in a fantastic location overlooking the South Northumberland cricket ground, and within walking distance of Gosforth High Street.

"It's very rare that an opportunity to buy a brand new luxury property in a sought-after location like this comes up, which is why only one apartment remains for sale.

"Here at The Wickets we're offering a lifestyle that's both luxurious and modern but quiet and relaxing too. There is the added advantage that you're only a couple of miles from the city centre, making it ideal for work and pleasure." Tel: [phone].
