Summary - 271, Standbridge Lane WF2 7NW
1 bed 1 bath Apartment
Compact one-bedroom with communal garden and good transport links.
One double bedroom with fitted wardrobes
A neatly presented one-bedroom first-floor apartment with a modern fitted kitchen and pleasant open views to the front. The double bedroom includes built-in wardrobes and the living room is well proportioned, making this compact home easy to manage for a buyer seeking a simple, low-maintenance base. Communal lawned gardens to the rear add outdoor space without private upkeep.
Important practical facts: the flat is leasehold with 96 years remaining and an annual ground rent of £10. Heating is by electric storage heaters and the current EPC rating is E41. The property is being sold by Modern Method of Auction — bids start at £67,500 but the sale is subject to an undisclosed reserve and a non-refundable reservation fee (details in the auction pack). Buyer’s fees apply.
Transport and connectivity are strong positives: the area has good local shops, schools and direct links into Wakefield and the national road network; mobile signal and broadband speeds are rated excellent/fast. Council tax sits in Band A, keeping running costs lower than many homes.
This apartment suits a first-time buyer or investor looking for a tidy, well-laid-out one-bed near amenities. However, purchasers should budget for the auction reservation fee, consider the lease length when arranging mortgage advice, and note the E41 energy rating and storage heaters if aiming to reduce future running costs or improve efficiency.
