Allocated parking and strong transport links ideal for buy-to-let investors.
Fourth-floor two-bedroom apartment with private balcony
Set on the fourth floor of City Gate in Castlefield, this 786 sq ft two-bedroom apartment offers straightforward buy-to-let potential or an affordable city base. The property features two double bedrooms with an ensuite to the master, a bright open-plan living area with a private balcony, and a fully integrated kitchen. Secure allocated off-street parking and well-kept communal gardens add tenant appeal in a popular city-centre location.
Practical ownership details support investor confidence: the long lease (approx. 133 years), chain-free sale, EPC C, and a modest ground rent of £125. Recent cladding rectification work has been completed; an EWS1 form is expected shortly and a developer-backed Letter of Comfort is available in the interim. Transport links are excellent for commuter tenants, and the multicultural, student-oriented neighbourhood supports strong rental demand.
Note the apartment uses electric room heaters rather than gas central heating; buyers should budget for running costs accordingly. As a modern build (2003–2006) with double glazing and insulated system walls, it offers low immediate maintenance, though investors should confirm the forthcoming EWS1 paperwork and factor service charges into yield calculations. Overall this is a well-located, chain-free central flat with clear rental and resale prospects.
