Set on the top floor of a modern red-brick development in popular Holgate, this two-bedroom apartment offers low-maintenance city living a short walk from the railway station and York city centre. The lounge is well-proportioned, and the separate fitted kitchen and two double bedrooms suit a couple or small family, or someone seeking a straightforward buy-to-let.
Practical details are strong: a long lease (circa 974 years remaining), an allocated parking space, communal bicycle storage and double glazing throughout. Heating is via electric storage heaters and the property uses mains electricity; this keeps maintenance simple but can mean higher running costs than central heating alternatives. Broadband options in the area are limited, with slower speeds reported locally.
There are clear ownership costs to note: the current service charge is about £1,689.52 per year and ground rent £95 with the next review in 2043. The apartment footprint is modest (approximately 547 sq ft) and there is no private outdoor space or balcony, which may suit buyers prioritising low upkeep over garden access.
Overall this is a practical, well-located flat for a first-time buyer wanting easy access to transport and city amenities, or for an investor seeking a managed, low-maintenance rental. The neutral presentation means cosmetic updating would quickly modernise the interior, while the long lease protects future value.
