Set on the 19th floor of The Heart, this modern 1-bedroom plus office apartment offers practical investment appeal and striking water views across Salford Quays. At 484 sq ft the layout is compact but efficient, with two bathrooms and a balcony option in some flats. Current tenancy produces a strong rental return and the building has an EWS1 B1 form in place.
The development benefits from concierge service and a highly convenient location just a five-minute walk from MediaCityUK Metrolink, with shops, restaurants and amenities within 250 metres. Lease terms are long (about 236 years remaining) and council tax is low, which supports both letting and resale prospects.
Material considerations are clear: heating is by electric room heaters (no central gas), broadband speeds are reported as very slow, and annual service charges and ground rent are ongoing costs to factor in (£3,384.76 and £326.70 respectively). The flat is sold leasehold and the current tenancy runs until January 2026, so vacant possession timing should be checked.
Overall this apartment suits investors seeking immediate rental income and buyers wanting a low-maintenance, centrally placed pied-à-terre with upside once tenancy ends. Costs for utilities and service charges are the main ongoing expenses to weigh against the advertised yields.
