Set on the River Aire, this one-bedroom apartment in The Quays offers a freshly refurbished, open-plan living space with large windows and a Juliet balcony that maximise natural light and river views. The layout suits a single buyer or couple seeking central Leeds living with easy access to transport, shops and waterfront walks. The property is EWS1 compliant and comes to market chain free, making it straightforward to move into.
Practical details favour a low-hassle purchase: a long lease (approx. 974 years) and fitted kitchen appliances including washer/dryer and dishwasher. The bedroom includes built-in wardrobes and the bathroom is fully tiled with a shower over the bath. At about 538 sq ft the apartment is an average-sized city home that feels bright and contemporary after its recent refurbishment.
Buyers should note some material downsides. Heating is by electric room heaters rather than a central gas system, which can increase running costs. Council tax is Band E (above average) and there is a small annual ground rent of £250. The building sits in a very high crime area classification and the immediate neighbourhood is a cosmopolitan, student-focused district — useful for rental demand but possibly noisier at times.
This apartment will suit a first-time buyer seeking a modern, low-maintenance city base or an investor targeting high rental demand close to universities and city transport links. The long lease and EWS1 compliance reduce ownership complications, while the riverside setting and recent refurbishment deliver immediate visual appeal.
