Introduction - Cornerstone are delighted to offer for sale this excellent investment opportunity, comprising a one-bedroom second-floor apartment within the award-winning Greenhouse development – an innovative and environmentally conscious residential communities.

The property is being marketed to investment purchasers only. The current tenant moved into the property on 1st May 2026 and is paying £700 per calendar month. Under the provisions of the Renters' Rights legislation currently in force, vacant possession cannot be obtained during the initial twelve months of the tenancy. As such, the property is not suitable for owner-occupiers and represents an investment opportunity with an established tenant and immediate rental income.
The property falls within a Leeds City Council Selective Licensing area. Any purchaser intending to continue letting the property will be required to comply with the Selective Licensing requirements and obtain the appropriate licence (unless an exemption applies). Buyers are advised to satisfy themselves regarding the associated obligations and costs prior to exchange of contracts.

The Greenhouse first opened its doors in October 2010 and quickly gained national recognition as one of Britain's most pioneering low-carbon developments. Designed with sustainability at its heart, this landmark scheme combines modern city living with exceptional energy efficiency and continues to attract strong interest from both tenants and investors alike.

The apartment itself offers well-proportioned accommodation comprising a spacious double bedroom, an open-plan kitchen, dining and sitting area, a contemporary bathroom featuring a walk-in shower, and a neutrally decorated entrance hallway. The layout has been designed to maximise both practicality and comfort, creating a home that appeals strongly to the professional rental market.

The Greenhouse is renowned for its clever design features and thoughtful approach to sustainability. Many of the fixtures and fittings reflect the development's environmentally conscious ethos. Even the apartment door numbers are crafted from recycled yoghurt pots – a small but memorable example of the innovation involved.

Residents enjoy access to a range of communal facilities, including a well-equipped gymnasium, adding further appeal for tenants seeking both convenience and lifestyle benefits.

One of the apartment's standout features is its exceptional Energy Performance Certificate rating of B. Combined with its Leeds City Council Tax Band A classification, this translates into comparatively low running costs, an increasingly attractive feature for tenants and an advantage for landlords looking to market an energy-efficient property in today's rental market.

Apartments within The Greenhouse have historically proven popular with tenants due to their proximity to Leeds City Centre, excellent transport links and low-cost, sustainable living credentials. The combination of an established tenancy, immediate income stream and a highly desirable location makes this property an attractive proposition for investors seeking a ready-made addition to their portfolio.

The Greenhouse enjoys an excellent position just to the south of Leeds City Centre, placing an extensive array of amenities within easy reach. Leeds City Centre, located approximately one and a half miles away, is one of England’s most vibrant and economically important cities. Residents benefit from world-class shopping at Trinity Leeds and Victoria Leeds, a diverse range of restaurants, cafes and bars, independent retailers, theatres, cinemas and galleries. The city is also home to major employers, thriving business districts and several highly regarded universities, all of which help to underpin strong and consistent rental demand.

For commuters, the location is particularly advantageous. The nearby M621 motorway can be reached within just a few minutes and provides direct access to both the M62 and M1 motorway networks. The M62 offers convenient routes across Yorkshire and towards Manchester and the wider North West, whilst the M1 provides excellent connections south towards Sheffield, Nottingham, Leicester and London. This outstanding connectivity enhances the apartment's appeal to working professionals and contributes to the long-term attractiveness of the development as a buy-to-let investment.

Parking is available on-street outside the development. In addition, secure parking spaces can often be rented within the development itself, subject to availability.

Combining immediate rental income, an established tenancy, outstanding energy efficiency, excellent communal facilities and an enviable position close to Leeds City Centre, this fantastic apartment represents a good investment opportunity.
