A bright, chain-free two-bedroom upper-floor apartment offering an open outlook and practical living in LS16. At about 597 sq ft, the layout is traditional and efficient, suited to first-time buyers seeking an affordable foothold in popular Adel. The well-kept communal garden and residents’ off-street parking add everyday convenience.
The property sits in a quiet modernist block built late 1970s–early 1980s, with double glazing (age unknown) and gas central heating via boiler and radiators. Running costs are disclosed: an average service charge of £1,140 and a low council tax band — useful for budgeting. The long lease (approximately 958 years) removes common leasehold concerns.
Practical drawbacks are clear and factual: overall size is small at around 597 sq ft, so storage and living space are limited. The lease prohibits renting the flat, which rules it out for buy-to-let investors. The building is of solid brick with partial insulation assumed; any purchaser wanting higher energy performance should factor potential upgrading costs.
Local amenities are strong for the price point: good primary and secondary schools nearby, local shops, regular buses, and easy road links toward Headingley and the Dales. Excellent mobile signal and fast broadband make the flat well suited to modern working patterns. For a first-time buyer seeking a tidy, affordable base in a desirable North Leeds neighbourhood, this flat offers straightforward value with limited running costs and clear constraints.
