Description
The Tower is a striking historic stone building arranged over ground and first floors, built into what remains of Newcastle’s medieval city wall, specifically one of its surviving gate towers. Originally constructed between the 13th and early 14th centuries, these walls once encircled the city, and this tower (Sallyport Tower).
The property offers a rare combination of character, heritage, and modern usability, making it highly attractive for investors, creative / wellbeing operators or owner-occupiers.
Nestled in the very heart of Newcastle upon Tyne, The Tower enjoys a prime location at the junction of Tower Street and Garth Heads, giving visitors both historical significance and excellent access to the city’s amenities. Within a five-minute walk you can reach the Quayside, one of Newcastle’s most vibrant districts, the Millennium Bridge and the BALTIC Centre for Contemporary Art, while Newcastle Castle and St. Nicholas’ Cathedral are less than ten minutes away on foot.
