Summary - 16, James Brindley Basin M1 2NL
2 bed 1 bath Flat
Contemporary two-bedroom canalside apartment in secure gated development, close to city links.
Two large double bedrooms with plentiful natural light
Set on the tranquil James Brindley Basin, this two-bedroom canal-side apartment offers calm waterside views with easy city access. The gated development and very low local crime create a secure, residential feel while being moments from Piccadilly Village amenities and transport links.
Inside, the apartment feels spacious for its size (circa 754 sqft) with a generous entrance hall, bright lounge and two large double bedrooms. The separate fully fitted kitchen and modern family bathroom suit everyday living; contemporary feature walls add personality without detracting from the neutral, move-in-ready presentation. An EPC rating of C reflects reasonable energy efficiency.
Practical points are clear: the property is leasehold (246 years remaining) with a service charge of around £1,595 per year. Heating is by electric room heaters rather than a communal gas system, which can mean higher running costs. The area is classified as a cosmopolitan, multicultural student neighbourhood and is identified as deprived on some indices — this brings strong rental demand but may feel busy at times.
Overall this apartment will suit buyers seeking a well-presented, low-maintenance home or an investor targeting reliable city-centre rental income. Its secure, canalside setting and good broadband and mobile connectivity make it especially appealing to professionals and sharers who value convenience and scenic outdoor space.
