Two double bedrooms with generous windows and exposed brickwork
Set within the converted Kingsley House in Manchester’s Northern Quarter, this second-floor apartment pairs industrial character with practical city-centre living. High ceilings, exposed brickwork and three large windows give the generous living room a bright, airy feel. Two double bedrooms and a separate kitchen suit sharers or a first home wanting space.
Practical details that matter: the apartment is leasehold (999 years from 1996) with an annual service charge of about £3,365 and no ground rent. The property comes with a secure allocated off-street parking space — a real benefit for central locations — and is around a five-minute walk to Piccadilly train station and Metrolink.
Buyers should note some running-cost and connectivity realities: heating is electric (room heaters) and main fuel is electricity, which can be more expensive than mains gas; broadband speeds are reported very slow for this address. These factors affect ongoing costs and working-from-home convenience.
This apartment will suit first-time buyers seeking character and central convenience, or investors targeting strong rental demand in a student/commuter neighbourhood (current estimated yield c. 6.2% at £1,350pcm). While the flat is well-presented as a converted warehouse, buyers who need very fast broadband or lower-cost heating should factor potential upgrades into their plans.
