Characterful one-bedroom apartment with balcony, parking and long lease — ideal for downsizers.
Allocated off-street parking included
Set within a converted Gothic-Revival residence on Lancaster’s south-east fringe, this well-proportioned one-bedroom apartment suits someone looking to downsize without compromising on space or character. The open-plan living area flows onto a private balcony with wooden decking, and the kitchen comes fitted with integral appliances for immediate move-in.
The bedroom includes a fitted wardrobe and the apartment benefits from an allocated off-street parking space and extensive communal grounds — rare conveniences in a historic building. Heating is by mains-gas boiler and radiators; broadband and mobile signal are both strong for modern living. A virtual video tour is available for an initial view.
Financially the home is straightforward: long leasehold interest (about 244 years remaining), an annual service charge of £2,202.04 and ground rent payable (two payments of £187.08 per year, totaling £374.16). Council Tax is band B. Buyers should note the development’s communal retirement classification and the above-average local crime level when considering suitability.
This apartment will particularly appeal to buyers seeking low-maintenance, characterful accommodation close to city amenities, hospitals and universities. It offers immediate occupation with potential to personalise, while the service charge covers communal upkeep in the converted building.
