Summary - 6 FLAT 5 CHARLES STREET SHIPLEY BD17 7BL
1 bed 1 bath Apartment
Practical, well‑connected apartment close to stations and shops.
First-floor one-bedroom open-plan apartment, compact 450 sq ft
This compact first-floor one-bedroom apartment in central Shipley offers low-maintenance city living just minutes from Shipley railway station. The open-plan lounge/kitchen maximises the modest footprint and suits a single occupant, couple or buy-to-let investor seeking straightforward accommodation with good transport links to Leeds and Bradford.
Practical costs are clear: a long lease (980 years), service charge £660pa and ground rent £300pa. Council tax band A is very cheap, and broadband and mobile signals are strong—positive for homeworking or rental appeal. The building is a period stone conversion with double glazing; internal space is compact and the layout is simple.
Important negatives are factual: the property sits in a very deprived area with very high local crime rates, and there is only on-street parking and no private outdoor space. Heating is by electric storage heaters and the stone walls appear uninsulated, so energy and comfort levels may need attention. Overall, the flat is best for buyers prioritising location, low maintenance and transport links over generous space or a quiet suburb.
