Set within a historic 1848 mill conversion, this first-floor two-bedroom apartment offers canal-side views and a rare private single garage. The living room opens onto a balcony overlooking the Leeds/Liverpool Canal, and the building’s high ceilings and exposed beams preserve notable period character. The long 999-year lease provides security while the property’s central Skipton location places shops, station and amenities within easy walking distance.
Practical running costs reflect the building’s communal upkeep: an annual service charge of about £1,623 contributes to insurance, lift and common-area maintenance. Heating is electric night-storage (Economy Seven) and the property has sealed-unit double glazing; there is no gas supply. The apartment is compact at about 554 sq ft, so it suits buyers seeking low-maintenance central living rather than larger family accommodation.
Buyers should be aware the building is Grade II listed, which preserves historic features but can restrict alterations and make some maintenance more complex and costly. Flood risk is rated medium — sensible insurance checks are recommended. Overall, this chain-free apartment will appeal to first-time buyers or downsizers who value character, canal-side position and secure parking, and who are comfortable with electric heating and listed-building considerations.
