Chain-free one-bed near Leeds centre with communal terrace and long lease.
Third-floor apartment with lift and secure intercom cameras
A bright third-floor one-bedroom apartment in Victoria House, completed in 2018, offers compact city living close to Leeds city centre. The open-plan living/kitchen benefits from floor-to-ceiling glazing and a Juliette balcony, giving a light, contemporary feel. Communal amenities include a secure intercom with cameras, lift access and a shared terrace.
This chain-free flat suits a first-time buyer or investor seeking a low-maintenance, modern home with long lease terms (246 years remaining). The layout includes a double bedroom, shower room and an integrated kitchen; appliances and finish are modern and ready to use.
Be clear about running costs and location trade-offs: heating is electric (room heaters), which may mean higher energy bills compared with gas systems. The annual service charge is around £1,468 and the ground rent is £513.63, which buyers should factor into affordability calculations. The local area is an inner-city, multicultural student neighbourhood with above-average crime rates and high deprivation indicators — ideal for city living and rental demand but less suitable for those seeking quiet suburban streets.
Overall this apartment is a straightforward, low-hassle city base or rental unit with strong transport links and immediate access to shops, universities and hospitals. Prospective buyers should check utility costs and factor service charge and ground rent into their long-term budget.
