This ground-floor, two-double-bedroom apartment at Spinners Wharf offers compact, move-in-ready living with a private terrace overlooking the River Aire. The open-plan kitchen/living area is bright and modern, with integrated appliances and contemporary finishes suited to someone seeking a low-maintenance home or a straightforward buy-to-let.
Practical points work in its favour: allocated off-street parking, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal make the property convenient for commuting and renting. The long lease (reported as 981 years) and chain-free status simplify purchase logistics. Heating is by electric room heaters and the main fuel is electricity, so running costs should be considered alongside the affordable council tax band.
Be clear about the constraints: the overall footprint is modest (567 sq ft) and internal ceiling heights vary; communal and external space is limited. The local area scores as very deprived with a very high crime level and a medium flood risk, which will affect desirability for some buyers and may influence insurance and mortgage terms. Service charges and ground rent apply (details reported in summary); prospective buyers should verify all lease and service-cost information.
For first-time buyers this is a relatively low-entry option into Shipley with river views and practical parking. Investors will note rental potential given location and broadband provision, but should factor in local area challenges and running costs before committing.
