Summary - Insignia, Talbot Road, Manchester M16 0PG
2 bed 2 bath Apartment
Modern top-floor flat opposite Old Trafford — strong rental income and long lease.
Top-floor two-bedroom apartment with two bathrooms
This two-bedroom, two-bath top-floor apartment in Insignia sits directly opposite Old Trafford Cricket Ground, offering strong rental demand and easy access to Metrolink services, MediaCity and Manchester city centre. The open-plan living area, contemporary fittings and large windows provide bright, modern accommodation attractive to professionals, students and short- to medium-term tenants.
The property is currently achieving a rental of £1,425pcm (£17,100pa), which equates to a projected gross yield of about 7% at the guide price of £245,000. Practical extras include gated parking available for £160pa and secure cycle storage — useful for commuters — plus excellent mobile signal and fast broadband for remote workers.
Buyers should note the annual service charge of approximately £2,200 and ground rent of £218pa. The property sits in an area classified as deprived, though it benefits from very low crime, nearby green spaces, good schools, and immediate transport links that support continued rental demand. The lease has 246 years remaining, offering long-term security for owners and investors.
Overall, this modern apartment is best suited to investors or professionals seeking a low-management, let-ready asset in a highly connected Old Trafford location. The main trade-offs are ongoing service charges and the broader area's socio-economic profile; both should be weighed against the reliable rental income and location-led demand.
