Set on the eighth floor of the Abito development, this compact one-room apartment delivers efficient city living and broad rental appeal. Large floor-to-ceiling windows and a private balcony frame open urban views, while integrated furnishings and a fold-down bed create surprisingly usable space for the size. The building provides concierge, bike storage and a secure communal feel.
Financially the property is notable: chain-free sale, a reported 9.3% gross yield, very low local crime and excellent transport links to Deansgate and Victoria station. The long lease (132 years) and low ground rent support typical investor or first-time buyer needs, though annual service charges are material and should be budgeted for.
Practical points to note: the apartment is small (approximately 344 sq ft) and built with electric warm-air heating, which can be more expensive than gas alternatives. The unit will suit someone seeking a low-maintenance city base or a buy-to-let with strong local rental demand, but it is not suitable for buyers needing multiple rooms or large living areas.
