Summary - Flat 7, Wellington Court, 4 Rutland Street LE1 1RA
1 bed 1 bath Apartment
Compact Victorian apartment — chain free city-centre living with upgrade potential.
Chain free second-floor one-bedroom apartment
A compact one-bedroom apartment in a converted Victorian hotel, set on the second floor and offered chain free. The living-kitchen is open-plan and well presented, with double glazing and an EPC rating of C; the building retains period character, high ceilings and tall windows that bring natural light into the space. The flat is small (approximately 420 sq ft) and suits a single occupant or couple seeking an affordable city-centre base or a buy-to-let opportunity.
Heating is electric (described as electric central heating/room heaters) and the property sits within solid brick walls likely without cavity insulation — energy efficiency improvements may be needed over time. Broadband speeds are reported as very slow in the area and local crime levels are very high; these are important practical considerations for occupants and investors.
Location is a clear advantage: central Leicester (LE1) with immediate access to shops, cafes, public transport and local amenities. The property is within a cosmopolitan student and professional neighbourhood and is close to a mix of state and independent schools. The apartment’s compact layout and city-centre position make it a reasonable option for a first-time buyer seeking low-entry purchase or an investor targeting short-term lets or city rentals, but plan for heating, insulation and connectivity upgrades.
