Set within a converted mill on the canal bank, this two-bedroom, 700 sq ft apartment pairs industrial character with modern fittings. Large windows and high ceilings give plenty of natural light and attractive water-side views, while an open-plan living/kitchen layout feels spacious and practical for everyday living or rental occupancy.
Practical details suit first-time buyers and investors: an allocated off-street parking space, 106 years remaining on the lease, and low council tax. The property is finished with a contemporary kitchen, laminate flooring and exposed brick features that preserve the mill’s character.
Buyers should note material running costs and constraints. Heating is electric (room heaters) rather than gas mains, which can raise energy bills. Flood risk is rated medium due to the canal-side location. The property is leasehold: current ground rent is shown as £217 annually and service charge figures vary in the paperwork (a general figure of £2,058 is quoted, while management records state £171.50); these should be clarified before purchase.
Overall this flat offers accessible commute links to the M62 and Huddersfield town centre, solid investment potential from its conversion character and location, and straightforward accommodation for couples, sharers or a buy-to-let portfolio — provided buyers factor in energy costs, flood risk and leasehold charges.
