Summary - 51 FLAT 8 MANOR DRIVE MANCHESTER M21 7JU
2 bed 1 bath Retirement Property
Compact, low-maintenance two-bed close to Chorlton amenities and transport links.
Ground-floor apartment with private access to south-facing communal garden
Ground-floor, two-bedroom retirement apartment in a low-rise purpose-built block, ideal for those looking to downsize without leaving Chorlton. The apartment opens from a private hall into an open-plan lounge/diner with patio doors leading to south-facing communal lawned gardens, bringing good natural light to the main living space.
Accommodation is compact but practical: a fitted kitchen, one double bedroom with fitted wardrobes, a smaller second bedroom and a modern three-piece shower room. The property is heated by electric storage heaters and double glazed; these features suit low-maintenance living but can mean higher running costs compared with gas-heated homes.
Leasehold tenure with c.117 years remaining provides long-term security for purchasers. Service charge is notable at around £2,496 per year and communal parking is available to the rear. The apartment is well placed for Chorlton Water Park, local shops and frequent buses into Manchester city centre — attractive for retirees who value nearby amenities and occasional city access.
This apartment suits a retiring buyer seeking a manageable home in a popular suburb, or an investor targeting the over-55s rental market. The flat is presented in good order but offers scope for modest kitchen or bathroom modernisation to increase comfort or rental yield.
