Contemporary seventh-floor two-bed with long lease and canalside setting, close to the city centre..
Seventh-floor two-bedroom with balcony overlooking private residents' garden
Apartment B708 is a bright, modern two-bedroom home on the seventh floor of the award-winning Middlewood Locks canalside development. Full-height glazing and a private balcony overlook the residents' garden, while an open-plan living area and high-spec Pronorm kitchen give the apartment a contemporary, move-in-ready feel. The layout includes a master bedroom with walk-in dressing area and en-suite, plus a second double bedroom and a Jack-and-Jill bathroom.
The specification is a strong selling point: Quartz worktops, integrated Bosch appliances, luxury vinyl and carpeted bedrooms, Porcelain-tiled bathrooms, and quality Hansgrohe/Vitra fittings throughout. Practical features include a separate utility cupboard with a washer/dryer, parcel lockers, residents' atrium, and a 10-year building warranty. The 999-year lease with peppercorn ground rent adds long-term security.
Important practical notes: secure off-street parking is available but at additional cost, and some visuals provided are of the show apartment rather than this specific flat (B708). The wider neighbourhood is classified as very deprived and “hampered”, which may concern buyers prioritising local area indicators despite the development’s canalside setting and proximity to the city centre.
This apartment suits first-time buyers seeking contemporary, low-maintenance city living with long leasehold security and modern fittings. It also offers appeal for small households wanting good transport links and communal facilities, though buyers should factor parking costs and local area statistics into their decision.
