General

Presented to the market with the benefit of no onward chain, this delightful apartment is one of just three in the building, overlooking this historic square and within walking distance of Leeds’s vibrant city centre. This is a prime letting area – close enough to the centre for an easy commute but also providing the welcome respite and greenery of the Square. The property benefits from gas central heating and on street permit parking, and comprises: Communal entrance with stairs to the upper floors, a private entrance hall with storage, a charming living room, a separate modern kitchen, one double bedroom and a modern bathroom with shower. Despite being top floor, there are no awkward sloping ceilings with limited head height or space constraints. Instead, the contemporary colour palette, exposed brick walls and late Georgian sash windows provide elements of loft living and an industrial feel. Low service charge & ground rent make this already attractive property even more appealing! Internal inspection essential to fully appreciate.

Please note: The internal marketing photos were taken just prior to the current tenants moving in. The current tenants are a professional couple and pay £875pcm. The flat lets quickly each time it’s available, with minimum void periods in the last 4 years. The current tenants have lived there since 2024; the tenants before them were also there for 2 years. The rent will be reviewed this year. The landlord’s furniture and appliances will be included with the sale.
