Summary - Thornhill House, Wakefield, WF1 WF1 1NL
1 bed 1 bath Flat
Compact modern flat ideal for rental or commuter living near Wakefield Kirkgate.
Secure communal entrance with long 997-year lease remaining
This top-floor one-bedroom apartment in central Wakefield offers a compact, modern home or a straightforward rental investment. Built in 2023, the apartment benefits from contemporary fittings, integrated kitchen appliances, and a long lease of 997 years, reducing long-term tenure concerns.
The open-plan living/kitchen is bright thanks to three double-glazed windows and recessed spotlights, while the double bedroom and shower room provide practical, low-maintenance accommodation. Service charges are modest at £722 per annum and council tax is Band A, helping keep running costs down.
Location is a key selling point: city-centre position within walking distance of Wakefield Kirkgate station, shops and amenities makes the flat attractive to commuters and renters. Estimated rental income of £650–£695 pcm provides clear investor appeal.
Buyers should note material drawbacks factually: there is no allocated parking and on-street parking only; broadband speeds are reported as very slow; the area records very high crime levels and is classified as very deprived. Heating is electric/storage-based, which can be more expensive than gas. These points are important for owner-occupiers and prudent investors to consider.
