A bright two-bedroom second-floor apartment in the Hungate area, a short walk from York city centre and riverside walks. The open-plan living area, large windows and small balcony provide a compact but comfortable urban home or rental unit. EPC B and lift access suit sensible running costs and accessibility needs.
Practical considerations include an average annual service charge of £2,836.25 and ground rent of £289 pa with a 5% annual review due July 2025. There is no allocated parking—street parking only—and heating is electric room heaters, which may affect bills.
The property is offered with no onward chain and a long lease (181 years remaining), making it easy to buy for first-time purchasers or investors. The development has maintained communal areas, bike storage and bin stores, and the flat’s compact 523 sq ft layout is low-maintenance with modern finishes.
Note the wider area is listed as deprived with very high local crime statistics; buyers should consider security and insurance costs. For buyers seeking a city base or a lettable investment close to transport, shops and schools, this apartment is a pragmatic, well-located option.
