Compact, long-lease one-bed with parking in the heart of Carlisle.
One-bedroom first-floor flat above The Lanes Shopping Centre
A well-presented first-floor one-bedroom apartment set above The Lanes Shopping Centre, ideal for a first-time buyer seeking a compact city-centre base. The flat offers a spacious living room and bedroom with good natural light, a practical kitchen and a bathroom arranged for everyday use. Off-street parking and a long lease (137 years remaining) add practical value.
The location puts shops, cafés and public transport on the doorstep, and the building’s communal corridor with exposed-brick planters provides a sheltered social space. Heating is by mains-gas boiler and radiators, and double glazing is installed (pre-2002).
Buyers should note important negatives: the property sits in a very high-crime, deprived city-centre area, and the flat is small at about 435 sq ft. Broadband speeds are average and some communal and building-age elements may need checking given the mixed commercial/residential setting. The sale is offered with no onward chain, which can shorten the move process.
Overall this apartment suits a single buyer or couple wanting central convenience or an investor targeting city-centre rental demand. The long lease, low council tax and parking make it practical, but prospective buyers should factor local area crime and amenity pressures into their decision and carry out their own checks on services and building management.
