This penthouse duplex offers a bright, compact home with two double bedrooms and direct views across Old Trafford — ideal for first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors seeking strong location appeal. The open-plan fifth-floor living area has large windows and a small balcony, giving the apartment a light, airy feel and clear sightlines to nearby sporting and media hubs.
Practical benefits include allocated covered parking in a secure gated area, an included EWS1 certification, a long lease (250 years remaining), and relatively low service charges of £115 per year. The property sits next to the Old Trafford Metrolink station and is within walking distance of shopping, supermarkets and leisure facilities, making daily travel and errands straightforward.
Buyers should note the property is electrically heated via room heaters, which can be more costly to run than central heating systems. The overall internal size is compact (approximately 613 sq ft) and there is a single full bathroom plus a downstairs WC, which may limit flexibility for larger households. The wider neighbourhood is an inner-city area with signs of deprivation, though the immediate location records very low crime and excellent transport links.
In summary, this duplex is a practical, well-located starter home or investment with strong transport and amenity credentials, secure covered parking and long lease length. Expect modest running costs due to electric heating and a compact living footprint when assessing suitability and budgets.
