This compact one-bedroom apartment in central Salford is aimed squarely at buy-to-let investors seeking strong rental returns from a city-centre location. The flat is fully furnished, currently let to a reliable tenant, and sits within easy walking distance of Deansgate and excellent public transport links — ideal for students and young professionals.
Internally the 323 sq ft layout is efficient: an open-plan kitchen/living area, a good-sized bedroom with built-in wardrobe and a contemporary bathroom. Large vertical windows provide plenty of natural light and the finish is modern and low-maintenance, suited to a let-ready investment. EPC rating C is reasonable for an apartment of this age.
Notable running points and constraints are straightforward: the property is leasehold with 237 years remaining and an average service charge of around £1,200 per year. There is no allocated parking (on-street only) and heating is by electric room heaters rather than a communal gas system — factors that may affect tenant bills and appeal for some occupiers.
Overall, this is a small, well-located apartment offering immediate rental income and high yield potential for investors willing to accept city-centre compromises such as limited space, no private outdoor area and electric heating. Long lease length, furnished condition and strong transport links make it easy to re-let or hold as a steady income asset.
