Description
GENERAL
Presented to the market with the benefit of NO ONWARD CHAIN, this is a great opportunity for a first-time buyer, or an investor landlord, to purchase a well-proportioned flat that enjoys a long lease and a comparatively low service charge (that includes a sum to cover the ground rent). Oakfield House is an imposing Victorian mansion comprising 14 apartments over four floors. With gas central heating and large portrait windows, this apartment briefly comprises a private entrance hall with store cupboard, a lounge with a furniture friendly footprint, a modern kitchen, a double bedroom and a bathroom with over bath shower. The location is within a couple of minutes’ walk of Headingley train station, and handy for numerous public transport links into the city centre and the universities. Five minutes away is the famous Headingley cricket ground and rugby ground, as well as all the shops and bars in Headingley and Kirkstall. The flat has private and visitor car parking and is set within extensive grounds maintained by the leasehold management company. EARLY VIEWING HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.
Please note: the property is currently tenanted and at some point our seller will need to serve notice to bring the tenancy to an end. We are using marketing photos taken before the current tenants moved in.
