This compact one-bedroom apartment in the Kinetic Building is presented primarily as an investment purchase. It is currently tenanted at £880pcm, producing an estimated yield above 5% and with future rental potential of £900–£950pcm. The building sits on Talbot Road with reliable transport links into Manchester city centre and a range of local amenities nearby.
The flat is an open-plan layout with a modern fitted kitchen, a double bedroom and a bathroom, arranged within about 321 sq ft. It includes a secure off-street parking space and sits on a long lease with approximately 246 years remaining. EPC band C and a low council tax band help keep running costs reasonable for tenants.
Notable operating costs and specification should be considered: an annualised service charge of about £1,622 and a ground rent of £338.60 per year apply. Heating is electric room heaters rather than central gas, which can raise energy costs depending on tenant usage and tariff. The property is compact and will appeal to single professionals or investors rather than families seeking larger living space.
The surrounding neighbourhood is an inner‑city, culturally mixed area with higher measured deprivation but very low recorded crime and excellent mobile and broadband connectivity. This makes the apartment practical for lettings to students, city workers or long‑term rental demand in Old Trafford. Buyers should note the tenure is listed as unknown for freehold/leasehold reporting, though a long lease term is recorded.
