Modern investment opportunity with strong commuter rental potential and long lease security.
Off-plan one-bedroom apartment ideal for investors
High-spec contemporary finishes and integrated kitchen appliances
999-year lease with no ground rent
Average service charge around £1,038 per year
Excellent transport links to Manchester and airport
Small-to-medium internal size; limited external views
Located in a high-deprivation area; tenant mix likely professionals
Off-plan sale — completion/specification subject to change
A compact, high-spec one-bedroom apartment offered off-plan in central Stockport, aimed squarely at investors seeking rental income. The development promises contemporary finishes, integrated appliances, and neutral interiors that suit broad tenant demand. Communal management is by leasehold with a long 999-year term and no ground rent.
The location benefits from excellent transport links — direct trains to Manchester under 15 minutes, quick access to the M60 and Manchester Airport — supporting strong commuter rental demand. Local amenities and multiple schools are nearby, though the wider area shows high deprivation levels and some nearby schools rated below Good, so tenant profiles are likely to be working professionals or young couples rather than families seeking top-rated schools.
Outgoings and condition: average service charge circa £1,038 per year and leasehold tenure apply. The property is off-plan, so completion timelines and final specification may vary; no exceptional external views are advertised. Apartments are small-to-medium in size, best suited to rental use or first-time investor portfolios rather than those needing spacious family accommodation.
Overall, this is a straightforward investment play: low initial management complexity, modern finish, strong transport-led rental appeal and 999-year lease security. Investors should factor in service charges, the off-plan nature, and the neighbourhood’s socioeconomic profile when modelling returns.
