A bright, compact one-bedroom apartment with a rare private south-facing terrace, offered chain free and ready for immediate occupation. The open-plan living/kitchen benefits from large floor-to-ceiling windows that flood the main living space with daylight and provide direct access to the terrace — a useful extra for city living.
Practical positives include a long lease (134 years), on-site gym and communal grounds, and the ability to rent a secured parking space. The property has a sensible EPC C rating and sits within easy walking distance of Leeds city centre, transport links, shops, bars and restaurants — appealing for commuters and first-time buyers wanting city convenience.
Buyers should note the apartment is leasehold with an annual service charge of about £1,996 and ground rent of £205. Heating is electric via room heaters rather than gas central heating, which can increase running costs. The building is in an area with higher-than-average crime and marked local deprivation; prospective purchasers should consider location factors and carry out their own local checks.
Overall this is a well-located, low-maintenance urban starter home or city-base investment, offering outside space and communal amenities at an affordable price point, but with ongoing charges and higher local area risk to weigh up.
