This duplex penthouse occupies the top floors of the award-winning Timber Wharf development, offering a spacious 1,023 sq ft layout with strong dual-aspect light and framed canal and skyline views. The apartment includes a large terrace plus an additional balcony, open-plan living with a contemporary kitchen and two double bedrooms, each with en suite or balcony access — a comfortable, modern home or city-centre pied-à-terre.
Practical advantages include a secure tandem underground parking space for two cars, vacant possession with no onward chain, and a very long lease (999 years). The development has an EWS1 A2 rating and an established communal waterside setting with easy access to the canal towpath, bars, restaurants and Salford Quays.
Notable running costs: the annual service charge is £4,046.16 (above average) and council tax is described as quite expensive. Heating is electric with underfloor systems, which can influence energy bills compared with gas-heated properties. Buyers should note the property is leasehold and confirm parking/management rules and any future service charge changes.
This property will suit buyers seeking a distinctive, architect-designed city apartment with outdoor space and parking. It also has rental potential in this cosmopolitan, student-rich neighbourhood; investors should review estimated rental returns and management arrangements before committing.
