Compact, ready-made rental with strong short-term yield in Leeds city centre.
Tenant in situ — immediate income from 2025
A compact, modern one-bedroom apartment in central Leeds, offered with a tenant in situ and immediate rental income. The efficient open-plan layout, contemporary finishes and full-height glazing maximise the small footprint for city living or letting. Kitchens are by Porcelanosa and the property was constructed in 2022, so fixtures are recent.
This is a buy-to-let opportunity: the flat currently achieves £875 pcm (around a 6% net yield at the asking price) and is sold furnished, making it a low-effort addition to a rental portfolio. The leasehold has a very long remainder (998 years), which reduces long-term title risk compared with shorter leases.
Notable practical points: heating is by electric room heaters and the property runs on electricity, which can increase running costs compared with gas. Ground rent is approximately £300 and the apartment is in an area classed as very deprived, which can affect long-term capital growth and tenant mix. The interior is small (circa 304–350 sq ft), suitable primarily for single occupancy or investor portfolios rather than family use.
Overall this apartment suits portfolio landlords seeking immediate yield and minimal voids. It offers contemporary specification and excellent transport and amenity links to Leeds city centre, but buyers should factor in higher energy costs, the compact size and local area deprivation when assessing long-term prospects.
