Set within a converted mill on the outskirts of Elland town centre, this first-floor three-bedroom apartment blends period character with contemporary living. High ceilings, exposed brickwork and large windows give the open-plan living space real presence, while the principal bedroom benefits from built-in storage and an en-suite shower. A useful third room can serve as a study or guest bedroom and there’s a rare in-flat utility cupboard and cloak space.
Practical features include lift access, allocated off-street parking with visitor spaces, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal — useful for commuters and home workers. The property sits close to local shops and amenities, with straightforward road links to Halifax, Brighouse and the M62 corridor for travel to Leeds, Bradford and Manchester.
Buyers should note material running costs and local context: this is a leasehold apartment with a long lease (982 years remaining) but an annual service charge of about £1,944 (quarterly £486), ground rent of £395 per year and building insurance around £100 per month. Heating is by electric room heaters rather than a central gas system, which may affect running costs. The immediate area shows higher crime and relative deprivation compared with nearby centres.
Overall, this is a ready-to-move-into three-bedroom apartment that will suit buyers seeking character, space and commuter convenience — or investors targeting rental demand in a well-connected location. Consider the service charges, heating type and local safety statistics when deciding suitability.
