Set within an intimate Ancoats conversion, this split-level loft apartment offers striking double-height living and a mezzanine bedroom, creating a bright, airy home of approximately 840 sq ft. The property benefits from a private entrance from a communal courtyard, a contemporary fitted kitchen and two bathrooms (one ensuite), making it well suited to couples or professionals seeking stylish city living.
Practical points to note: the flat is leasehold (approx. 240 years remaining) with an annual ground rent of £350, electric room heating and an EPC rating of E. Broadband speeds are average and the wider neighbourhood is a multicultural, student-heavy area where evening activity and noise are likely.
The apartment is chain-free, ideal for a quick sale, and its layout and strong natural light give scope for cosmetic updating or reconfiguration if desired. For investors, location close to bars, restaurants and public transport supports good rental demand; for owner-occupiers, the private entrance and generous living space feel surprisingly secluded for a central address.
Overall this is a unique, characterful city loft with clear lifestyle appeal, but buyers should budget for higher running costs due to electric heating and consider the EPC rating when planning improvements.
