A ground-floor one-bedroom apartment sold with no onward chain, offering an affordable entry into Wakefield with 112 years remaining on the lease. The apartment has an open-plan lounge/kitchen, a three-piece bathroom and PVCu double glazing, plus off-street parking and direct access to a communal lawn.
This property is best for a first-time buyer or investor prepared to complete light renovation works to refresh finishes and appliances. Service charge and ground rent apply (approx. £1,162.48 and £250 pa respectively), so factor running costs into your budget. The building sits on a coalfield and the local area records higher crime levels; prospective buyers should make their own enquiries.
Practical benefits include short walks to Wakefield town centre amenities, good mobile signal and average broadband. The fair lease length and low asking price create clear potential for a buy-to-let or starter home, but the apartment is not turnkey and requires some updating to maximise value.
