Compact, cheap-to-buy home ripe for improvement or rental.
Chain-free two-bedroom apartment with 137 years remaining on lease
This two-bedroom leasehold apartment in Highfield Chase is offered chain-free and ready for a new owner to personalise. At around 539 sq ft it suits first-time buyers or buy-to-let landlords seeking a compact property in a well-connected town location. The remaining lease of 137 years provides long-term security.
The flat benefits from off-street parking, double glazing and a handy location close to shops, schools and strong motorway and transport links. Local amenities are plentiful and the property is within easy reach of Batley and Dewsbury town centres, which supports rental demand and everyday convenience.
Buyers should note material running costs and local context: the service charge is approximately £1,896 pa with a ground rent of £300 pa. Heating is by electric room heaters (no communal gas) and the EPC is D — both indicating likely higher energy bills. The wider area records higher crime and deprivation statistics, which may affect outlook and rental yield.
Internally the apartment is a blank canvas: neutral modern finishes but some cosmetic defects (flooring alignment and wallpaper misalignment noted) and general maintenance likely required. For investors this is a straightforward let-ready opportunity after minor works; for owner-occupiers it offers affordable entry with scope to improve value through redecoration and energy upgrades.
