One double bedroom with open-plan living kitchen and modern fittings
A compact, well-presented one-bedroom apartment on Ecclesall Road, ideal for a first-time buyer seeking city-edge living or a landlord targeting professional tenants. The open-plan living/kitchen is bright and airy, and a south-facing balcony overlooks the Porter Brook, bringing direct sunshine and private outside space.
Practical advantages include a secure gated undercroft parking bay, lift access to all floors, double glazing and an efficient electric heating system giving an EPC C79. The building has a long lease (approx. 127 years remaining) and the sale is offered with no onward chain, making a quick move feasible.
Running costs are clear: an annual charge of £1,908.23 covers service charge, parking fee and ground rent (ground rent £150). The flat is small (about 430 sq ft) so it suits a single occupant or couple rather than a family. Broadband speeds are reported as slow, and the area records higher crime levels and a medium flood risk — important considerations for occupation or lettings.
Overall, this is a low-maintenance, modern apartment with good location benefits close to the city centre, transport links and local shops and cafés. It presents a relatively affordable entry onto the market at £135,000, but buyers should weigh area safety, connectivity limitations and the ongoing service charge when deciding.
