Summary - 82 NICHOLAS GARDENS YORK YO10 3EY
2 bed 1 bath Flat
Well-located starter flat near University of York with parking and long lease.
Allocated off-street parking space adjacent to block
A compact two-bedroom apartment in Nicholas Gardens, quietly set just off Hull Road with excellent links to York city centre and the University of York. The flat occupies a practical layout with a bright living room, fitted galley kitchen, two bedrooms and a single bathroom — a sensible, low-maintenance home or buy-to-let opportunity offered with no onward chain.
Practical positives include an allocated off-street parking space, communal lawns, double glazing and very long lease (circa 966 years). Service charge and ground rent are modest (service charge approx. £600, ground rent £25), council tax band B is inexpensive, and broadband and mobile signal are both strong — useful for students, remote workers and professionals.
Notable drawbacks are the apartment’s small overall footprint (approx. 526 sq ft) and reliance on electric room heaters, which may be less economical than gas central heating. There is no private garden and external communal space is limited. The wider area records higher crime levels, which prospective buyers should consider when comparing neighbourhoods.
This property suits a first-time buyer seeking a manageable, well-located starter home or an investor targeting steady rental demand close to the university and local amenities. It presents immediate usability with potential for modest cosmetic updating rather than major renovation.
