This ground-floor student studio in Scholars Village sits within a purpose-built block close to the University of Bradford and local transport links. The compact layout includes a studio room with en-suite bathroom and access to a shared kitchen, making it straightforward to let to students or occupiers seeking low-maintenance living.
The lease is long (243 years remaining), which supports longer-term ownership, but ownership is leasehold with a high annual ground rent of £592 and a service charge averaging £1,775.99 — factor these running costs into purchase and rental calculations. The property will be sold at an online auction; bidders should download the legal pack and check all documents before committing.
Location strengths include excellent mobile signal, fast broadband, frequent transport links to Bradford Forster Square, and proximity to the university and local amenities. Notable area issues are a high recorded crime rate, very high area deprivation, and a medium flood risk; these may affect tenant demand and insurance costs.
This lot suits cash buyers or investors targeting the student market who can manage relatively high service charges and operate in a higher-risk neighbourhood. Interested parties should review the legal pack and service-charge accounts, and factor in potential additional management, safety compliance, and insurance costs before bidding.
