Set within a restored Grade II listed Victorian building in the heart of Leeds, this one-bedroom apartment offers a compact, well-specified city-centre home or buy-to-let opportunity. The open-plan living area with floor-to-ceiling windows and integrated kitchen maximises light across the modest 402 sq ft layout, while smart-home tech and ceiling-mounted Sonos speakers add contemporary convenience.
Residents benefit from on-site services and facilities that strengthen rental appeal: 24-hour concierge/doorman, a communal roof terrace with city views and a private gym. A 10-year ICW warranty provides added protection; the very long 998-year lease removes typical short-lease concerns. Service charge is described as modest and there is no ground rent, supporting straightforward running costs.
Important considerations: the property’s Grade II listed status enhances character but restricts alterations and may complicate planning or refurbishment. The development sits in a multicultural, student-heavy neighbourhood with a very high local crime level — factors that will influence tenant mix, insurance and management requirements. The apartment’s small footprint suits a single occupant, couple or lettable studio alternative rather than buyers seeking larger family accommodation.
For investors seeking central Leeds stock with concierge services and strong rental demand potential, this apartment is a practical, low-maintenance option. For owner-occupiers wanting a compact city-base with high-spec finishes, the apartment offers convenience and character, provided you accept the listed-building constraints and urban context.
