This compact one-bedroom apartment in Gateway West offers a low-maintenance city-centre holding in a well-known development close to Leeds Station, shops and leisure. The property is currently let, providing immediate rental income and sits within a complex with 24-hour concierge and on-site gym — facilities that help retain tenants in this student-focused, cosmopolitan neighbourhood.
The flat is south-facing with a first-floor balcony, large windows and circa 460 sq ft of living space arranged over two main rooms. Built in 2006, the block benefits from modern double glazing and secure communal areas; the lease has 131 years remaining, reducing long-term ownership risk compared with shorter lease flats.
Key running costs and practical points are clear: the unit uses electric room heaters (no communal gas), the service charge is listed at £1,629 (average) with a small ground rent of £250, and the property is sold leasehold. It is set within a multicultural student area — strong demand for rental lets but that character may not suit owner-occupiers seeking a quiet family neighbourhood.
Overall this is a straightforward, investment-ready city-centre apartment with on-site amenities and a long lease. Prospective buyers should note the electric heating, ongoing service charges, and that the flat is tenanted, meaning viewings and vacant possession would need tenant cooperation or negotiation.
