Summary - ROYAL MILLS, 2 APARTMENT O S 704 COTTON STREET MANCHESTER M4 5BW
3 bed 2 bath Apartment
Characterful city living with a light-filled atrium and parking.
Large 1,538 sq ft triplex with three double bedrooms
Set across three levels in the landmark Royal Mills, this 1,538 sq ft triplex offers generous, characterful living in the heart of Ancoats. The open-plan kitchen/dining area and separate living space open onto a large glass atrium/enclosed terrace that works well as a home office, winter garden or gym. High ceilings, exposed beams and retained mill detailing give the apartment strong period character alongside contemporary fittings.
Accommodation includes three double bedrooms, two bathrooms and an allocated off-street parking space. Practical benefits include fast broadband, excellent mobile signal and a 24-hour concierge. The building’s Grade II listing and solid brick construction deliver authenticity and charm but also mean alterations will be restricted and repairs may require specialist consent.
Buyers should note the material running costs: an above-average service charge of £6,964.60 pa (covers hot water and heating) and an annual ground rent of £175. The long lease (150 years from 2004, c.129 years remaining) is healthy for a leasehold purchase. Some thermal performance limitations are likely due to original solid walls with no assumed insulation.
Positioned five minutes’ walk from New Islington Marina, this apartment is well placed for restaurants, cafés and transport links to Piccadilly and Victoria. It will suit families seeking roomy, characterful city living or buyers wanting a high-profile Ancoats home with adaptable internal space.
