High-spec two-bedroom home ideal for rental or city living near major employers.
Private balcony with water views and panoramic riverside aspect
This two-bedroom apartment in The Lightbox, MediaCityUK, offers reliable rental appeal and city living with private water views. At around 722 sq ft, the flat is finished to a high specification and includes two bathrooms, integrated appliances and a private balcony overlooking the water. On-site concierge and communal bike storage add convenience for tenants.
Positioned beside major employers and cultural attractions — BBC, ITV, University of Salford, The Lowry, and nearby sports venues — the property suits professionals and students seeking short commute times. The area is cosmopolitan and very affluent, with plentiful bars, cafes and retail on-site and within walking distance.
Important practical notes: the property is leasehold with 244 years remaining and an average ground rent of £364. Heating is provided via a community scheme (check service charges), and advertised broadband speeds are very slow, which may affect tenants who require high-capacity internet. The neighbourhood is a student-oriented, multicultural zone and can attract higher turnover.
Overall this apartment is a strong option for investors targeting MediaCityUK rental demand or buyers wanting a low-maintenance city base. Buyers should factor in ongoing service charges, broadband limitations, and the leasehold costs when assessing net yield or monthly ownership costs.
