A rare ground-floor garden apartment in West Didsbury, ideal for a first-time buyer or investor seeking a compact, low-maintenance home. The flat offers an open-plan living area with patio doors leading to a private enclosed garden, a fitted kitchen, one double bedroom and a bathroom with a white three-piece suite. Residents’ parking is available on-site and the property is offered chain free.
Set within a modern development built in the 1980s, the apartment benefits from double glazing and a very long lease (958 years). Fast broadband and excellent mobile signal suit home-working or streaming, while the nearby cafes, bars and transport links make central Manchester easily reachable. Local schools include a Good-rated primary and an Outstanding secondary, adding appeal for young families.
Practical drawbacks are straightforward: the home is small at around 425 sq ft and heated by electric storage heaters, which can be more expensive than gas alternatives. The wider area scores as deprived, which may affect future resale values in some parts. The property is leasehold with a small ground rent and modest service/maintenance responsibilities typical of modern developments.
Overall this is a compact, well-located apartment that suits buyers wanting immediate access to West Didsbury’s amenities and good transport links, or landlords seeking a long-lease investment with rental potential. Buyers should note the size and heating type when budgeting.
