This raised ground-floor apartment offers a rare 754 sq ft of open-plan living in central Manchester, presented chain free and ready for immediate occupation. Large windows flood the main living space with light while a contemporary kitchen and hardwood floors give the home a fresh, usable feel. The generous footprint and flexible layout suit a single occupant or couple seeking spacious city living.
Practical considerations are straightforward: the property is leasehold with a long remaining term (973 years) and an average annual service charge of £2,495. There is currently no central heating system installed; electric heaters are assumed, so buyers should allow budget for heating improvements if desired. Council tax is described as affordable and flood risk is nil.
Set within a multicultural, student-oriented neighbourhood, the apartment benefits from excellent transport links, fast broadband and a wide range of nearby amenities — eateries, shops, gyms and cultural venues are all close by. The area classification and proximity to education hubs may appeal to landlords or buyers wanting strong rental demand, but it also means a lively, urban environment rather than a quiet suburb.
Overall this property blends period conversion character with modern fittings and sizeable internal space. It will suit a first-time buyer or investor who values central location and square footage, and who is comfortable managing the modest service charge and arranging heating improvements if they want a different system installed.
