Summary - 1 APARTMENT 1145 KELSO PLACE MANCHESTER M15 4LE
2 bed 2 bath Flat
Ideal buy-to-let with parking and strong city-centre rental appeal.
Top-floor corner apartment with full-length balcony and river views
Set on the 14th (top) floor, this corner apartment delivers clear canal and River Irwell views from a full-length balcony that runs the length of the living room and main bedroom. The open-plan living area with integrated kitchen and two double bedrooms offers straightforward city-centre rental appeal and tenant comfort. Secure allocated off-street parking is included — a notable premium in central Manchester.
The property is leasehold with 102 years remaining and was built in the early 2000s, so it benefits from relatively modern construction and double glazing. At approximately 726 sq ft, the layout is larger than average for the block and suits sharers or a small family; local amenities, bars and transport links are an easy walk away, supporting steady demand from students and young professionals.
Buyers should note practical drawbacks: heating is by electric room heaters which can mean higher running costs, and the EPC rating is D. These factors affect operating expenses and potential energy-conscious tenant demand. The apartment is presented in contemporary finish but offers scope for cosmetic upgrading to boost rental yield or capital value.
Overall, this top-floor riverside flat combines strong location, secure parking and balcony views — features that typically attract long-term renters and short-term investor returns. The combination of modern build, central position and clear rental market demand makes it a straightforward buy-to-let prospect, subject to addressing energy efficiency and heating considerations.
