This well-presented one-bedroom first-floor apartment sits in the heart of Bakewell, within easy reach of shops, cafes and leisure facilities. The open-plan living and dining room and generous double bedroom provide comfortable, manageable space ideal for downsizers or buyers seeking a low-maintenance town centre base. Lift and stair access plus a security intercom add everyday convenience and peace of mind.
The building’s stone-faced, period appearance and bay windows give character and town views across Bakewell and the Peak District setting. Practical built-in storage in the private entrance hall helps keep the living space uncluttered. The property is offered chain-free, with an EPC rating of C.
Notable costs and constraints are straightforward: the flat is leasehold with about 91 years remaining, an average service charge of £2,400pa and a small ground rent of £75pa. Heating is by electric room heaters rather than a central gas system, which may mean higher running costs. Broadband speeds are average, and the building was constructed in the late 1990s/early 2000s with double glazing already fitted.
Overall this apartment suits someone wanting a centrally positioned, low-upkeep home close to amenities and local walks — especially buyers looking to downsize or own a convenient holiday base in the Peak District. Be aware of leasehold terms, ongoing service charges and electric heating when assessing running costs.
