Set across two levels, this newly renovated three-bedroom penthouse offers 1,540–1,548 sq ft of city-centre living with a private rooftop garden and balcony. The open-plan living area with a dramatic curved window and spiral staircase creates a bright, airy feel, while a contemporary white-gloss kitchen (fitted 2022) and AEG appliances add genuine move-in comfort. Two allocated parking spaces and 24-hour concierge provide rare practical benefits for central Manchester residents.
The accommodation includes three double bedrooms, two en suites, a utility room and additional WCs — flexible space suited to professionals, couples sharing or investors seeking high-spec rental stock. The apartment has air conditioning, double glazing and a newly fitted electric boiler (Dec 2023), reducing short-term maintenance concerns. Transport links are excellent: mainline stations and tram stops are all within a short walk.
Be clear about recurring costs and location context. The property is leasehold with 103 years remaining, a ground rent of £150 and a service charge of £5,680pa (above average). Council tax is described as very expensive. The building sits in a multicultural, predominantly student neighbourhood and the wider area is marked as deprived — factors that may affect resale or rental profiles depending on buyer priorities.
Practical notes: heating is electric (room heaters), broadband speeds are average, and glazing dates from before 2002. For buyers prioritising a high-spec penthouse in Manchester’s cultural core — where convenience and lifestyle outweigh suburban space — this is a compelling, ready-to-live-in option. For those seeking quieter, family-oriented suburbs or long leasehold headroom, note the location and recurring costs before proceeding.
