About Chowdene
Chowdene is a settled, family-friendly neighbourhood in Gateshead. You've got three Good-rated schools here, including St Anne's Catholic Primary, which performs well above the national average. Day-to-day essentials are easy to find — six local convenience stores, a GP, dentist and post office are all in the neighbourhood, with restaurants and pharmacies just outside. Living costs run well below the UK average, and house prices sit at a reasonable middle ground between neighbouring Low Fell and High Fell. Crime has been falling into 2026 and sits below regional peers. You can drive to the A1(M) and wider Tyne and Wear network without hassle, though buses and rail links are a short walk away rather than right on your doorstep.
