Summary - Joseph Leigh House, Wellington Street, Stockport SK1 3AD
2 bed 1 bath Apartment
Central Stockport living with parking and shared ownership access.
Two double bedrooms with period features
A bright two-double-bedroom apartment in a converted Victorian building, offered on a 40% shared ownership basis. Set on the third floor with lift access, the flat combines period character—high ceilings and arched/stained-glass windows—with an open-plan living room and kitchen. Secure off-street parking and a private raised garden add practical outdoor space rare for central addresses.
This home is well suited to first-time buyers or those downsizing who want central Stockport living with lower up-front purchase costs. The property has a remaining lease of 87 years and council tax Band B, and benefits from excellent mobile signal and fast broadband — useful for home working. The building is set within maintained grounds and includes a large residents’ car park.
Buyers should note the running costs: an above-average service charge of £4,505.16 per year (about £375.43 pcm) and the property is leasehold. The wider area scores high on deprivation indices and the local classification indicates economic challenges; nearby schools’ Ofsted outcomes vary. The apartment offers ready-to-live-in accommodation but will suit those prepared for shared-ownership commitments and communal maintenance arrangements.
