Summary - 1535 THE MELTING POINT, 5 APARTMENT 99 FIRTH STREET HUDDERSFIELD HD1 3BE
1 bed 1 bath Apartment
Affordable one-bed in converted mill near university with parking and gym access.
Fourth-floor one-bedroom with exposed stone feature wall
This fourth-floor apartment in a converted mill blends industrial character with practical urban living. The open-plan living-kitchen benefits from two large windows and an exposed stone feature wall, creating a bright, loft-style space suited to study, work-from-home or social living. An included allocated parking space, on-site gym and concierge add convenience uncommon at this price point.
The property is particularly well-placed for Huddersfield University and town-centre amenities, making it a straightforward choice for students, university staff or first-time buyers seeking rental potential. The long lease (999 years from 2003) reduces long-term leasehold concerns and running costs are modest: council tax band A and a below-average annual service charge.
Buyers should note the apartment uses electric wall heaters and room heaters, and the building’s original stone walls are likely uninsulated; energy rating is D. The local area is described as a multicultural, student-dominated neighbourhood with very high recorded crime levels and pockets of deprivation—important for those prioritising security or long-term appreciation.
Overall this is an affordable, characterful one-bedroom with low entry costs and immediate usability. It suits someone wanting proximity to the university and town centre, with scope to improve energy efficiency and personalise interior finishes over time.
