General

Presented to the market with the benefit of no onward chain, this well-proportioned second floor apartment is set back from Cardigan Road and only a short walk to Headingley’s vibrant amenities. The property is sure to appeal to first time buyers and investors alike (having been let to professional tenants for the last 20+ years - the last tenants paid £1075pcm) and in brief comprises: Communal entrance, a private entrance hall, a dual aspect lounge, a separate kitchen, two generous double bedrooms (one with an en suite shower room) and a second bathroom with an over bath shower. ‘Gardenhurst’ is set behind secure electric gates and there are two parking spaces with this property, something other comparable developments don’t offer. Electric heating & uPVC double glazing. The property has the original fixtures and fittings from 2001 and we’ve no doubt some buyers will wish to upgrade to their own tastes. The kitchen in particular is showing its age; however, we feel the guide price allows for upgrading. This property is for sale via the Modern Method of Auction – Reservation Fees apply. Early viewing recommended.
