Communal gardens front and rear; ample off-street parking
Service charge £720pa (includes insurance); council tax Band A
Compact kitchen and only one bathroom — may limit some buyers
Period build (1900–1929); walls likely without modern cavity insulation
Excellent transport links to Leeds and Bradford; walkable to Salts Mill
Situated in World Heritage Saltaire with shops, cafes and parks nearby
This ground-floor, two-bedroom apartment sits in Saltaire’s World Heritage village, a short walk from Salts Mill, Roberts Park and the station with frequent trains to Leeds and Bradford. Large windows and high ceilings give the living room generous natural light and a strong sense of space; the property also benefits from gas central heating, double glazing and soundproofing.
The layout works well for downsizers or first-time buyers seeking a low-maintenance home: a large main bedroom, a smaller second bedroom or study, fitted kitchen and a bathroom with shower over bath. Outside there are communal gardens front and rear, plus a long driveway providing ample off-street parking. The apartment is chain free with a very long lease (999 years) and a modest annual service charge of £720, and council tax is in band A.
Buyers should note this is a period property (circa 1900–1929) with sandstone/limestone walls likely lacking modern cavity insulation, so thermal upgrades could improve comfort and running costs. The kitchen is compact and the flat has a single bathroom, which may be limiting for some households. The communal retirement classification nearby means the area can be quieter and well cared-for, but prospective buyers should confirm any communal rules tied to the lease.
Overall, this apartment offers characterful, light-filled accommodation in an exceptional village location, coupled with practical benefits such as long lease, low service charge and parking. It’s a sensible option for downsizers, first-time buyers, or investors seeking a stable, low-management property in a sought-after community.
