2 bed 2 bath Flat
High-yield apartment near BBC and transport links.
Two double bedrooms, principal with en-suite shower room
788 sq ft open-plan living with juliette balcony
11th floor — good views, no private garden access

Marketed 6.3% yield — strong investor appeal
Service charge about £3,600 per year (noted concern)
Very slow broadband speeds could affect tenants' needs
Electric room heating only — higher running costs possible
Set on the 11th floor of Number One, MediaCityUK, this two-bedroom apartment offers clear rental appeal and easy owner-occupation. The open-plan living area with a juliette balcony, integrated kitchen and two double bedrooms (principal with en-suite) deliver low-maintenance modern living in a highly connected media and leisure quarter.
The property is currently presented as an investment opportunity with a marketed 6.3% yield and comes with an EWS1 form in place, simplifying finance for mortgage buyers. At 788 sq ft and with an EPC C, the layout suits sharers, professionals and those working in nearby MediaCity, the BBC or The Lowry.
Buyers should note a materially high service charge of £3,600 per annum and that broadband speeds are recorded as very slow — both factors that may affect running costs and tenant demand. Heating is by electric room heaters rather than gas central heating, which can increase monthly bills.
Practical positives include a long lease (234 years remaining), very low local crime, excellent mobile signal and proximity to strong transport links and local amenities. For investors and first-time buyers seeking a turnkey, well-located flat in Salford Quays, early viewing is recommended to assess rental potential and running-costs personally.
