This two-bedroom, two-bath apartment offers modern city-centre living across two storeys with an open-plan living, kitchen and dining area. Floor-to-ceiling triple-glazed windows flood the space with light while industrial details — concrete floors, exposed steel ceilings and unique sliding wood-finish doors — give the home a distinctive, loft-like character. A private landscaped decking (2m x 1.5m) and extensive communal green space extend the living area outdoors.
The development prioritises low running costs and sustainability: solar panels, high-performance insulation, MVHR ventilation, airtight construction and no gas. Utilities are managed through a resident-owned Community Interest Company, and the scheme includes EV charging provision and secure bike storage — practical for eco-conscious first-time buyers seeking low-carbon living. Off-street parking exists but is limited and allocated at extra cost.
Practical points to note: the property is a new build with an average overall size (approx. 821 sq ft) and some apartment design is intentionally industrial, which may feel minimal compared with traditional homes. Tenure is not specified and should be confirmed. The wider neighbourhood is described as an area of higher deprivation, which may affect local services and resale considerations despite easy access to Leeds Dock, Brewery Wharf and good transport links.
Overall this apartment suits a buyer looking for contemporary, low-energy city living with community-led utilities and shared green amenities. It trades some conventional domestic warmth for a sleek, low-maintenance industrial aesthetic and strong sustainability credentials.
