Summary - Apartment 415 Citispace West, 2, Leylands Road LS2 7JT
1 bed 1 bath Not Specified
Compact one-bedroom BTL near Leeds centre — cash buyers only.
Close to Leeds city centre and transport links
A compact, purpose-built one-bedroom apartment on the fourth floor, presented as a ready-made buy-to-let opportunity close to Leeds city centre. The block was built in 2011 and benefits from secure entry, double glazing and communal roof garden — features that appeal to students and city professionals. Broadband and mobile connectivity are strong, supporting high rental demand in this inner-city location.
Important investor facts are clear: the property is leasehold with approximately 111 years remaining, an EPC rating of C, and current service charges around £698.96 every six months plus a small ground rent of about £250 per year. Heating is by electric room heaters, which can push running costs above gas-heated properties; buyers should factor this into affordability and tenant appeal.
The apartment is small and efficiently laid out with generous natural light from large windows, a kitchenette in the lounge and a compact bedroom and shower room. Its size and studio-style layout suit a single occupant, student or professional rather than a long-term family. The surrounding area is a multicultural, student-heavy neighbourhood with above-average crime and marked local deprivation — traits that sustain strong rental demand but bring management and safety considerations.
This is a cash-purchase opportunity marketed for buy-to-let use. It delivers low council tax (Band B) and straightforward maintenance, but investors should budget for service charges, consider electric heating costs, and recognise the area’s higher crime and deprivation when setting rents and selecting tenants.
