Summary - Water Street, The Lofts, HD1 HD1 4BX
2 bed 1 bath Apartment
Spacious two-bed apartment near Huddersfield University with parking and renovation potential.
Chain-free sale with 999-year lease
Set within a converted Victorian chapel on Water Street, this two-bedroom apartment offers 743 sq ft of characterful living with high ceilings and large windows. The chain-free sale and long lease (999 years) make it straightforward for first-time buyers or investors who want immediate occupation or let-ready potential. Allocated off-street parking is a practical bonus in a town-centre location.
The property sits within easy walking distance of Huddersfield University, the leisure centre, shops, bars and public transport, making it particularly suitable for students or commuters. The layout is generously proportioned and ready for cosmetic updating, so buyers can personalise finishes and improve energy performance where required. Current EPC rating D and electric room heaters indicate running costs are likely higher than modern systems.
Important practical points: the building dates from before 1900 and appears to have solid stone walls with no installed insulation (assumed), and heating relies on electric room heaters. The local area records very high crime levels and is classed as very deprived, which may affect resale or rental values. Overall this apartment suits buyers prioritising central location, character and scope for improvement rather than turnkey low-running-cost homes.
