A bright one‑bedroom apartment in the heart of York city centre, set within a converted development on Clifford Street. The open‑plan living, dining and kitchen space benefits from large windows and integrated appliances, while the double bedroom provides fitted wardrobes for storage. Lift access and communal cycle/utility facilities add practical convenience.
The property is offered with vacant possession and a very long 990‑year lease; there is no ground rent and the annual service charge is £1,851.05. Council Tax is band C. These details, combined with compact, efficient accommodation, make the apartment suitable as a first home, a city pied‑à‑terre or a buy‑to‑let investment.
Buyers should note a few important considerations: heating is electric (room heaters/radiators), which can be more expensive than mains gas; broadband speeds are reported as very slow; and the local area records a very high crime classification. There is no private outdoor space.
Overall this apartment offers low‑maintenance city‑centre living with strong rental and convenience appeal, balanced by higher running costs and local amenity caveats that buyers must weigh against the long lease and central location.
