A freshly and tastefully renovated ground-floor flat offering two double bedrooms, a large lounge/diner and a stylish fitted kitchen. The 605 sq ft layout is compact but well organised, with quality finishes and plentiful built-in storage that make the most of the space. The property sits close to Saltaire (approximately 600 metres to Saltaire station) — ideal for first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors seeking strong local rental demand and easy commuting links.
The block sits in a low-rise, post‑war estate with communal grounds and secure entry. External elevated views take in Salts Mill, Roberts Park and Victoria Hall. Service/maintenance costs are reportedly low, and council tax is at the lower end (Band A), helping keep running costs down.
Important practical points: the building is of Wimpey ‘No Fines’ concrete construction (1967–75), which can restrict mortgage options with some lenders and should be checked with a mortgage adviser. The flat is leasehold — prospective buyers must review the lease length, ground rent and any service charge details. Private outdoor space is limited to communal grounds rather than a private garden.
The local area is mixed: excellent transport and amenities and a cluster of good primary and secondary schools nearby. However, crime statistics for the immediate area are high; buyers should consider security measures and confirm personal comfort with the neighbourhood before committing. Overall, this is a practical, well-presented compact home for someone prioritising location and low running costs over large internal or private outdoor space.
