Ground-floor one-bedroom; compact 361 sq ft internal area
Modern decor throughout; open-plan kitchen/lounge
Approx. 100 years remaining on lease
Annual service charge c. £1,481.08; ground rent approx. £25
Economy 7 electric storage heating; EPC rating D
Solid brick walls likely without modern insulation
On-street parking only; small paved yard at street level
Local area: town centre location but very high crime rate
This ground-floor one-bedroom apartment sits in a converted Georgian building on Ousegate, a short walk from Selby town centre and the station. It offers a compact, modern-decor interior with an open-plan kitchen/lounge and a modest paved yard at street level. The sale is chain-free, making it straightforward for a quick purchase.
Practical running costs and constraints are clear: the home uses Economy 7 electric storage heating, has an EPC rating of D, and solid brick walls likely lack modern cavity insulation. The lease has approximately 100 years remaining; annual service charge and ground rent apply (service charge around £1,481.08, ground rent c.£25).
This property suits a first-time buyer or landlord seeking an affordable entry to Selby’s market. The apartment’s small footprint and higher-than-average service charge mean it is best for single occupancy or rental use rather than as a long-term family home. Prospective buyers should factor in the area’s high crime statistics and consider energy-efficiency improvements.
Buyers are advised to verify all details, including heating and appliance condition, and to review lease documents and local searches before proceeding.
