Tall windows, exposed brick and trusses give a loft-like feel to the large 1,047 sq ft layout, while the upper-level open-plan kitchen, dining and living space is bright and sociable — ideal for city living and entertaining.
The development offers practical benefits for daily life: a 24/7 concierge, landscaped communal courtyard, cycle storage and an EWS1 form in place. The property is chain free with a long lease (circa 240 years) and peppercorn ground rent, and it sits just a five-minute walk from Manchester Piccadilly station, convenient for commuters and first-time buyers seeking strong connectivity.
Buyers should note a few material considerations. The building’s listed status can complicate alterations and maintenance consent. The apartment relies on electric room heaters rather than gas central heating, which may increase running costs. The annual service charge is approximately £3,325.
Overall, this is a sizeable, characterful city home that suits buyers prioritising location, design and convenience. It will particularly appeal to those who value a loft atmosphere, easy rail links and the community amenities of an established mill conversion, while accepting the constraints that come with listed status and electric heating.
