2 bed flat for sale

Masham Court, Shaw Lane, Headingley, Leeds LS6

A two bedroom first floor flat in a purpose-built development located a short walk from both Meanwood and Headingley’s vibrant centres. Leasehold for a term of 999 years from 1982. Service Charge: £125pcm. Ground Rent: Nil. Council Tax Band B.
General

In need of full modernisation throughout, this is a great opportunity to purchase in a well regarded purpose built development located in the Far Headingley Conservation Area. Brought to the market with the benefit of no onward chain and a long lease, the property has been rented to professional tenants for many years (the most recent tenants lived there for 15 years!) and would now benefit from upgrading and refurbishment. In brief, the property comprises: A private entrance hall with airing cupboard, a generous reception room with lounge, dining and kitchen areas, a southwest facing balcony, two bedrooms (both with fitted wardrobes) and a bathroom with over bath shower. Masham Court is set within very well maintained grounds and gardens, and there is some off road parking along with unrestricted on street parking on Moor Road. We’ve no doubt the flat will appeal to both first time buyers and landlord investors, keen to personalise to their own tastes, and an early viewing is highly recommended.
