Tucked in a quiet pocket of a sought-after West Yorkshire village, this ground-floor two-bedroom apartment offers compact, modern living with genuine local character. The layout suits a first-time buyer, commuter or investor seeking low-maintenance accommodation close to countryside walks and village amenities. With double glazing, gas central heating and an EPC rating of C, it is ready to occupy without major works.
Accommodation is practical and well-presented throughout, with an open living/dining area adjoining a fitted kitchen, two bedrooms and a contemporary bathroom. At about 496 sq ft the apartment is small but efficiently arranged; rooms are bright and the ground-floor position removes the need for stairs. The long lease (980 years remaining) reduces typical leasehold concerns.
Running costs are straightforward: mains gas heating, affordable council tax and an annual service and ground rent total of £1,700. Broadband speeds are average and mobile signal is excellent. The location is a key asset — independent shops, pubs and schools are within walking distance, and commuter routes connect quickly to Halifax, Huddersfield and Manchester.
Buyers should note the apartment’s modest size may limit furniture layouts and storage; it will particularly suit those wanting manageable, low-upkeep accommodation rather than larger family living. Service charges are present and should be factored into annual costs. Overall, this property represents practical, village-based living with strong commuter links and low immediate maintenance needs.
