This ground-floor two-bedroom apartment sits within the converted Old Mill at Salts Mill Road, offering character industrial features such as high ceilings and exposed brick with a modern open-plan kitchen. The principal bedroom has an en-suite and there is a separate house bathroom, making the layout practical for sharers or a first home. Communal grounds are extensive and include tennis courts, a gym and on-site bistro, giving the development strong amenity value without private garden maintenance.
The apartment is compact at about 611 sq ft and best suited to first-time buyers, commuters or buy-to-let investors who value location over large internal space. It is a leasehold with around 100 years remaining. Transport links are a major benefit — the nearby train station provides direct connections to Leeds and Bradford — and fast broadband plus excellent mobile signal support home working and streaming.
Buyers should note material drawbacks plainly: the wider area scores high for crime and is very deprived, which may affect suitability for some households and potentially rental demand or resale perception. There is no private outdoor space and the apartment footprint is modest, so those seeking larger rooms or a garden should look elsewhere. Flood risk is low and council tax is described as affordable, which helps running costs.
Overall, this is a compact, characterful mill-conversion apartment in a well-serviced complex. It represents a convenient, low-maintenance option for commuters or an investor seeking a rental in a central Shipley location, provided buyers accept the urban context and local area challenges.
