Fifth-floor two-bed with two balconies, parking and long lease — ideal first-time buy or investor..
Two double bedrooms with principal bedroom opening onto a balcony
Set across the fifth floor of Burton Place, this two-double-bedroom apartment offers a practical first home or buy-to-let in Castlefield’s calm pocket, a short walk from Deansgate and Spinningfields. The open-plan living space opens via concertina doors onto a balcony, with a second balcony accessed from the principal bedroom — great for light, ventilation and canal-side views. The development holds an EWS1 A1 certificate.
The interior is modern and well maintained: fitted kitchen with integrated appliances and breakfast bar, contemporary bathroom, wood floors in the living area and double glazing. The flat is offered with vacant possession and includes a secure allocated off-street parking space — a rare convenience close to the city centre.
Practical points to note: heating is electric (room heaters) rather than gas central heating, and the bathroom is compact. The property is leasehold with a long lease (999 years from 2003 noted; circa 978 years remaining), an annual service charge of £3,361.52 and ground rent of £504.76. These running costs and the electric heating are important for budgeting and may affect rental yield or mortgage costs for some buyers.
Overall this is a well-presented, low-crime, city-fringe apartment suited to a first-time buyer seeking manageable upkeep and proximity to transport links and amenities, or an investor seeking steady rental potential. Viewing is recommended to appreciate the layout, balconies and allocated parking in this sought-after Castlefield development.
