A compact one-bedroom apartment in Renaissance House, positioned on Millbrook Street directly facing Stockport College. The flat offers an open-plan lounge/kitchen, double bedroom with built-in wardrobe and a modern bathroom — arranged for efficient, low-maintenance city living. At 399 sq ft it suits a single occupant, couple or a buy-to-let investor seeking a centrally located holding.
The property is currently let, producing around £650pcm, and can be sold with vacant possession if preferred. The long lease (circa 238 years remaining) and modest ground rent (£150) make leasehold ownership straightforward for portfolio buyers. Communal access includes lift and stairs; the block dates from the late 1960s/early 1970s and presents a durable, modernist exterior.
Notable practical points: heating is by electric room heaters and the cavity walls are assumed uninsulated, so running costs may be higher than gas-heated alternatives. The wider area is classified as very deprived and the immediate local profile is described as hard-pressed flat dwellers — useful context for owner-occupiers and investors assessing rental demand and tenant profiles.
Overall this is a no-frills, central Manchester-area investment with immediate rental income and straightforward management. It will particularly suit investors after a compact, long-lease flat near transport and amenities, or first-time buyers seeking a low-maintenance starter home who accept small internal space and electric heating.
