Character-filled two-bedroom duplex close to city amenities and transport links.
Grade II listed neoclassical building with high ceilings and character features
Set over the second and third floors of a striking Grade II listed neoclassical building on Grey Street, this duplex apartment combines period character with city-centre convenience. The large living room with high ceilings and secondary-glazed sash windows leads to a modern fitted kitchen; two double bedrooms occupy the upper level, with an ensuite to the master and a separate bathroom. The spiral staircase and generous room proportions give genuine character and strong city rental appeal.
Practical details support an investor or city dweller: 125 years remaining on the lease, off-street parking bay (fob access), and a recent rental record of £2,000 pcm for two years. There is no onward chain, and mains services are connected; note there is no gas supply and heating is electric via a boiler and radiators.
Buyers should be aware of material considerations: the Grade II listing means alterations will be restricted and can complicate refurbishments. The annual service charge is high (approx. £7,228.58), broadband speeds are reported as very slow, and the local crime level is very high — all important for both owner-occupiers and investors to factor into running costs and lettability.
Overall, this is a character-rich city-centre duplex with proven rental income potential, best suited to purchasers who value central living or investors prepared to accept listed-building constraints and higher service costs.
