This third-floor, one-bedroom apartment in Woodsmill Quay offers direct River Ouse views and a private garage — a compact, city-centre investment or holiday-let near York’s attractions. Recently renovated and presented in contemporary style, it combines exposed mill character with modern fixtures and an EPC B rating. The flat is chain free and ready for immediate occupation or letting.
Grade II listing preserves character but brings planning constraints; any external or structural changes may require consent and could delay alterations. The property sits in a high flood-risk zone and uses electric storage heating, factors that affect insurance and running costs. Annual service charge (£1,473.37) and ground rent (£100) should be included in yield calculations.
Practical positives include a long lease (around 110 years remaining), garage parking and excellent broadband and mobile signal for bookings and remote check-ins. The local area is lively and well served by amenities, transport and tourism — a strong draw for short-term letting — but note the immediate neighbourhood records higher crime levels, which may influence guest perceptions and management arrangements.
