Summary - Lilycroft Road, Bradford, West Yorkshire, BD9 BD9 5BE
2 bed 2 bath Penthouse
Two-level apartment in historic mill, ideal for buy-to-let or first purchase..
Two double bedrooms and two bathrooms across duplex layout
Set over two levels in the converted Lister Mills complex, this fifth-floor duplex offers two double bedrooms, two bathrooms and a long balcony with wide city views. The apartment retains period character — exposed brickwork and high ceilings — combined with a modern open-plan living area and allocated off-street parking. With 729 sq ft and an EPC rating of C, it suits both buy-to-let and owner-occupier buyers seeking a low-maintenance city-centre base.
The property is a leasehold (127 years remaining) and carries a notable service charge and ground rent; expect regular communal upkeep costs. Heating is by electric storage heaters and mains electricity, which can be more expensive than gas alternatives. Council Tax Band C and an EPC of C are practical details to factor in when budgeting running costs.
This apartment presents clear investment potential given its central location, duplex layout and period appeal. However, the immediate area is classified as very deprived with higher crime levels, which may affect rental demand and long-term capital growth—buyers should consider local market dynamics and rental yields carefully.
Overall this is a characterful, well-located two-bedroom duplex for someone prioritising central living, period features and ease of maintenance. It will suit investors or first-time buyers prepared to accept higher service charges and electric heating in exchange for a distinctive mill-conversion home with parking and outdoor balcony space.
