A practical shared ownership chance in Bramley: purchase a 40% share for £50,000 of this well-presented two-bedroom first-floor apartment. The home sits in a modern brick development (built 2007–2011) and offers an open-plan living/kitchen, a Juliet balcony and allocated off-street parking — useful for first-time buyers aiming to reduce upfront costs.
Monthly outgoing costs are clear: approximate rent £257.51, service charge £141.98 and a management fee of £15.40, giving an estimated total of £404.89 per month. The lease has around 82 years remaining. Heating is mains gas via a boiler and radiators; double glazing was installed after 2002. Broadband and mobile signal are good and the area records low crime rates.
Practical drawbacks are straightforward: this is a leasehold shared ownership property (40% share) so you will continue to pay rent and service charges and there are eligibility rules (income cap and first-time/other criteria apply). The lease length (82 years) is moderate — some buyers may want to investigate lease-extension costs. The apartment is average-sized at about 620 sq ft, with one bathroom, so space is best suited to singles, couples or small families.
Positioned close to local amenities and with easy access to the M18 and M1, the property is convenient for commuting and local services. With no onward chain, it offers a quicker move-in for buyers who meet shared ownership requirements, and the combination of modern fittings and modest monthly costs makes it a realistic route onto the ladder.
