A striking ground-floor duplex within Grade II listed York House, this bright one/two-bedroom apartment combines period character with contemporary finishes. The open-plan living room benefits from full-height windows, a mezzanine bedroom and generous ceiling heights that create an airy city-centre home or lettable space.
Practical running costs include an annual service charge of about £2,072 and a ground rent of £200. The flat is leasehold with approximately 130 years remaining and is offered chain free — attractive to buyers seeking a straightforward purchase or investors wanting quick completion.
Important practicalities: the building’s listed status restricts alterations and may complicate renovations or permitted changes. Heating is electric room heaters only, and broadband speeds are very slow; these are relevant for residents or tenants. The location is central, lively and well connected, but is in a high-crime, deprived urban area, which may affect resale and rental demand.
