Perched on the top floor of Wilburn Basin, this two-bedroom penthouse delivers expansive living space and a full wrap-around balcony with panoramic city and riverside views. Floor-to-ceiling windows flood the open-plan living area and both principal rooms with light, while a modern fitted kitchen and luxury bathroom plus en suite complete the accommodation.
Residents benefit from hotel-style services and on-site facilities including 24-hour concierge, a residents’ gym, media room and private lounge. The apartment includes a secure under-croft allocated parking space and is offered with vacant possession and no onward chain. An EWS1 form with a B1 rating is in place.
Practical points to note: the flat is leasehold (approx. 241 years remaining) with an annual ground rent of £300. Main heating uses electric room heaters, which can mean higher running costs compared with gas systems. The wider area is a busy, cosmopolitan student and commuter neighbourhood with strong transport links to Deansgate, Spinningfields and Castlefield.
This penthouse suits someone seeking a turnkey, high-floor city home with significant outdoor living and concierge-led convenience. It also presents longer-term rental or investment potential given central location and communal amenities, but buyers should factor in electric heating, leasehold costs and the mixed local socioeconomic profile.
