A compact third-floor studio in the heart of Leeds city centre, offered chain free and with a long lease (231 years). The open-plan living/bedroom and modern fitted kitchen lead onto a small balcony overlooking nearby rooftops, while the bathroom is contemporary and the apartment benefits from double glazing and an EPC B rating.
This location suits investors seeking steady tenant demand — close to the University of Leeds, transport links and city amenities. The area is a known student and rental market, so short-term voids should be limited and yield potential is supported by central positioning and excellent broadband/mobile connectivity.
Buyers should note the property is small (approx. 431 sq ft), with an annual service charge of around £1,716 and ground rent of £250. Heating is electric (room heaters), which may increase running costs compared with gas-heated homes. The local area records very high crime levels and higher deprivation, and there is a medium flood risk — factors to weigh for long-term capital growth and insurance costs.
Overall this is a practical, low-maintenance city studio with clear rental appeal but measurable running costs and neighbourhood risks. Suitable for buy-to-let investors or a first city base for a single occupant who accepts small living space and urban trade-offs.
