Bright, compact and centrally located, this one-bedroom apartment in Centurion Square offers easy city living for a first-time buyer or buy-to-let investor. The open-plan lounge/diner and modern fitted kitchen create an airy main living space, while French doors open to a Juliet balcony overlooking well-kept communal gardens. An allocated parking space in the secure car park is a rare city-centre convenience.
Practical details are straightforward: double glazing, built-in kitchen appliances, generous bedroom storage and a contemporary bathroom. The building has lift access and communal areas are maintained. The lease runs to 105 years remaining; current running costs include an annual service charge of about £1,700 and ground rent £250.
Be candid about running costs and local risks. Heating is electric (room heaters), which can be more expensive than gas systems. The property sits in a high flood-risk area and the immediate neighbourhood records very high crime levels; both factors should be checked and factored into insurance and safety plans. Broadband and mobile coverage are good, and local amenities, transport links and nearby schools suit single buyers and commuters.
Overall this apartment suits someone seeking a compact, low-maintenance base in the heart of York or an investor targeting city-centre lettings. It offers convenient access to shops, bars, restaurants and the railway station, but purchasers should allow for higher utilities, service charges and the local flood/crime considerations.
