Set within an imposing Grade II listed Victorian Gothic building, this one-bedroom apartment combines period charm with practical amenities. High ceilings, sash windows and large rooms give the flat a spacious, characterful feel, while allocated gated parking and on-site gym and steam room add modern convenience.
The apartment suits a working professional or young couple seeking an affordable entry into Dewsbury close to the town centre, rail links and motorway networks. The long lease (975 years remaining) removes short-lease risk and the property comes with secure off-street parking — a valuable local benefit.
Prospective buyers should note this property is sold via the Modern Method of Auction and carries a non-refundable reservation fee (4.5% of the purchase price, minimum £6,600) payable on completion. The service charge is substantial (£4,572.58/year) and covers heating, communal maintenance and facilities; the building’s listed status also imposes constraints and may complicate alterations and repairs.
The wider area shows signs of economic deprivation and recorded above-average crime rates; buyers should factor local context into their plans. With planning care and respect for the listing, the apartment offers strong potential as an affordable urban home or lettable asset close to transport and amenities.
