This seventh-floor apartment in Masson Place offers an unusually large two-bedroom layout (approximately 1,330 sq ft) in The Green Quarter, a contemporary 2000s development close to Manchester city centre. The bright open-plan living area opens to a balcony; the master bedroom includes an en‑suite with a double walk-in shower. Secure allocated parking and well-kept communal gardens add practical value for tenants or owner-occupiers.
The property is best suited to investors targeting student or professional lets, or buyers seeking generous internal space in a city-centre setting. The local area is described as a multicultural, cosmopolitan student neighbourhood with excellent public transport, amenities and low crime — factors that support rental demand. Broadband and mobile signal are strong.
Buyers should note some material points: heating is electric via room heaters, which can mean higher running costs than gas systems. Annual service charge is £2,074.36 and ground rent is £250. There is a discrepancy in the lease information provided — one source lists 129 years remaining, while a separate note gives an expiry date of 01/08/2025; this must be clarified before exchange. The property is leasehold; no flood risk was recorded.
Overall, this apartment presents clear rental and space advantages in a central location, but purchasers should check lease documentation and factor potential higher energy costs into affordability calculations.
