Leasehold with 994 years remaining — long, low-risk lease

Very slow broadband speeds; may affect home working and streaming
Local area rated very deprived with very high crime statistics
This first-floor flat offers practical city living with a blend of period exterior and a modern interior kitchen. The open-plan lounge/kitchen and two bedrooms include an en-suite and main bathroom, making the layout suitable for first-time buyers or sharers. Residential off-street parking and a secure intercom add convenience and peace of mind.
The property is leasehold with an unusually long lease (994 years), modest service charge (£360) and a small ground rent (£120), keeping ongoing costs predictable. Heating is electric via room heaters; buyers should note there is no gas central heating for whole-flat warmth and running costs may be higher than gas alternatives.
Location is on the outskirts of Halifax town centre with good mobile signal and public transport nearby. However, the immediate area scores as very deprived with a very high local crime statistic and very slow broadband speeds — important factors for families or home workers to consider.
Overall this is a well-presented, average-sized flat that suits someone seeking a low-maintenance starter home with parking and period charm, or a buyer prepared to accept limited broadband and electric heating in exchange for a central position and long lease.
