This two-bedroom apartment occupies an elevated, prominent position in Browgate, Baildon, with distant views across the area. Converted from part of the former Baildon town hall, the flat sits in attractive communal grounds and benefits from an allocated off-street parking space and secure communal entry with intercom. Internally the layout is traditional and well presented, with a spacious living room featuring a bay window, two good double bedrooms and modern bathroom facilities including an en suite to the principal bedroom.
Practical points suit downsizers or professionals seeking low-exertion living: double glazing, communal maintenance, and an extremely long lease (978 years) reduce medium-term ownership concerns. The accommodation is an average-sized 732 sq ft and set within a comfortable, low-crime suburb with good local amenities and public transport links, including Baildon train station within walking distance.
Buyers should note a few material considerations: heating is by electric room heaters rather than a central gas system, which can mean higher heating costs; broadband speeds are only average; and the property is leasehold (details and any service charges should be checked). Access is via communal areas, so the home is not fully independent in terms of grounds and entrance.
Overall this apartment offers characterful, low-maintenance living in a very affluent, well-served location. It will appeal to those downsizing or seeking a comfortable base close to village amenities and transport links, with the reassurance of modern finishes and an exceptionally long lease.
