Open-plan living with Juliet-style balcony and good natural light
Light-filled and low-maintenance, this modern two-bedroom apartment in the Saltra development sits a short walk from Salford Quays and the Metrolink, making city-centre commutes straightforward. The open-plan living room with Juliet-style balcony and contemporary finishes create an immediate sense of space, while the principal bedroom benefits from an ensuite for added convenience. Secure gated parking is included — a valuable city-fringe perk.
The flat is compact (approximately 594 sq ft) and economically finished, with timber-effect flooring, double glazing and electric heating. EPC rating B and an EWS1 (B1) certificate in place should reassure buyers and lenders. With 127 years remaining on the lease and no onward chain, this is a straightforward purchase for a first-time buyer or a buy-to-let investor seeking a ready-made city rental.
There are running costs and characteristics to note: the annual service charge and ground rent are middling for a managed block, and heating is electric rather than gas, which can affect energy bills. The development sits in a cosmopolitan, student-heavy neighbourhood — good for rental demand but potentially lively at times. Overall this is a practical, well-located apartment offering easy access to transport, waterside amenities and local shops.
