Central town location within walking distance of shops and amenities
Set on the second floor of a period terrace on Horsefair, this one‑bed flat offers a compact, practical base in central Boroughbridge. The flat is chain‑free and comes with a very long lease (over 950 years), communal garden and off‑street parking to the rear — useful extras for a town‑centre apartment.
The living room benefits from dual-aspect windows and good natural light; the layout is efficiently planned for a single occupant or couple. Local shops, cafés and transport links are within easy walking distance, and York is a short drive away. Council Tax is low, and flood risk is minimal.
Buyers should note this is a small property (c.398 sq ft) with electric room heating and an EPC rating of F. The building is of older construction (early 20th century) and external walls are assumed to have no insulation, which may mean higher running costs and potential improvement work. Service charge and ground rent are currently £1,440 each per year — a material ongoing cost to budget for.
Overall this flat suits a first‑time buyer or investor looking for a low‑maintenance town base with long lease security and central convenience, provided they accept the compact footprint and likely need to improve energy efficiency over time.
