Set within a handsome Victorian red-brick building in the Lace Market, this one-bedroom second-floor apartment blends period character with contemporary touches. Large arched windows and exposed brick provide charm and natural light, while an integrated kitchen and a three-piece bathroom keep the flat low-maintenance and move-in ready.
At about 490 sq ft the layout suits a single occupant or couple looking for city-centre living. There’s a built-in wardrobe, a small balcony off the kitchen, and modern radiators served by a mains gas boiler. The long lease (977 years) and EPC C are practical positives for leasehold ownership.
Buyers should note the property sits in a busy, cosmopolitan student neighbourhood: local amenities, bars and transport links are excellent, but the area can be lively and sometimes noisy. The apartment has secondary glazing and solid brick walls (assumed no cavity insulation), so buyers may want to consider energy improvements over time. Services, heating and appliances have not been tested and no warranties are given.
Also be aware there is a public notice showing a recent offer and the sale is advertised as chain free. The property carries a small ground rent (£250) and is council tax band B. For a first-time buyer or investor seeking central position, character and convenience, this apartment offers immediate occupation and straightforward rental potential, with modest scope for further improvement.
