A well-presented ground-floor two-bedroom apartment in the heart of Withington village, offering 589 sq ft of practical living space and strong rental potential. The bright open-plan living area features a large bay window and modern fitted kitchen; both double bedrooms are a good size and the principal bedroom benefits from an en-suite. The property sits to the rear of the development, accessed via a communal entrance shared with one other flat, and includes residents-only off-street parking.
This leasehold apartment has 127 years remaining and reasonable running costs: service charge around £105.78 pcm (approx. £1,269.36 annually) and ground rent £150 pa. Heating is by electric room heaters and mains electricity is the primary fuel; the building has double glazing installed after 2002 but walls are solid brick with no assumed insulation, which may affect energy efficiency and bills.
Location is a major strength — Withington village amenities, bars and frequent bus links are moments away, with West Didsbury and the metro link within easy reach. The surrounding area is classified as a cosmopolitan student neighbourhood, supporting steady tenant demand; schools nearby include several highly regarded independent and state options. Note: the area shows medium flood risk and is in a generally deprived ward, facts to consider for insurance and long-term capital growth.
Overall this is a straightforward, low-maintenance apartment for investors or buyers wanting a central Withington base. It will suit someone seeking immediate rental income or a manageable first home, though prospective buyers should budget for potentially higher energy costs and factor service charges and ground rent into affordability calculations.
