Rare Chorlton site with planning for three large rooftop homes.
Planning submitted for three large penthouse apartments (CDN/22/0048)
This is a prime commercial development site in Chorlton (The Quadrangle, 6 Albany Road) offered with planning submitted for three large penthouse apartments (Application No. CDN/22/0048, submitted 28 Jan 2022). The building is a contemporary brick-and-glass apartment block on a very large plot in an affluent, low-crime area of Manchester (M21), making it attractive to developers seeking high-value residential conversions.
Location strengths include excellent mobile reception, fast broadband, abundant local amenities and good schools nearby, supporting strong rental or sales demand. The proposal targets large, high-spec rooftop homes that would capitalise on the neighbourhood’s desirable mix of terraces and flats and the quieter, tree-lined streets of Chorlton.
Important practical considerations: the planning application has been submitted but not confirmed as granted; tenure remains unspecified (TBC). Prospective buyers should allow for construction and fit-out costs, statutory fees and obtaining final planning and tenure clarity before exchange. These material points affect timings and budget for delivery.
For an experienced developer or investor, this offers clear upside — three substantial penthouses in a well-connected, affluent urban location — but it requires active project management to resolve tenure, secure any outstanding approvals and complete build works.
