A neatly presented garden apartment set within a handsome Victorian conversion on Palatine Road, footsteps from West Didsbury Metrolink. The flat occupies the garden level and enjoys private rear access and its own paved garden, making it a rare find for local one-bedroom homes.
Inside, the bay-fronted lounge/diner feels bright thanks to large windows and glazed sliding doors onto the garden. The apartment includes a double bedroom with wardrobe alcove, a modern fitted kitchen and a stylish bathroom. High ceilings and period features give the space character while hardwood floors add warmth.
Practical strengths include allocated residents’ parking, excellent mobile signal and fast broadband — useful for working from home — plus a very long lease (974 years) and low council tax. Note the building is solid brick (likely uninsulated) which may mean higher heating costs until improved; the property is leasehold and arranged as a studio-layout with approximately 460 sq ft overall.
