Quiet, practical and chain free, this one-bedroom first-floor flat offers a straightforward entry into homeownership or buy-to-let in Mark Hall Moors. At about 485 sq ft the layout is traditional — entrance hall, lounge, separate kitchen, bedroom and bathroom — and suits a single occupant or couple. Fast broadband and excellent mobile signal make it functional for modern working-from-home needs.
The flat requires cosmetic updating and some renovation, presenting scope to increase value and rental income. With 88 years remaining on the lease and a low ground rent (reported £10), the property could generate a competitive yield if rented, but buyers should factor lease length and refurbishment costs into affordability calculations.
Location benefits include nearby primary and secondary schools, local green space and public transport links. Downsides to note: the wider area records very high crime levels and the block’s cavity walls are assumed uninsulated; there is no private garden or notable outward view. Council tax is reported very cheap, which helps running costs.
This property will appeal to first-time buyers willing to carry out improvements or investors targeting rental income. Viewings are recommended for anyone seeking a budget-priced, chain-free purchase with clear potential after renovation.
