Summary - Flat 40 Whitworth House, 53, Whitworth Street M1 3WS
2 bed 1 bath Apartment
Central two-bedroom apartment opposite Sackville Gardens — auction sale, ideal for investors.
Basement-level two-bedroom apartment opposite Sackville Gardens
This two-bedroom apartment in Whitworth House offers a clear city-centre rental or resale opportunity opposite Sackville Gardens. The property is well presented with an open-plan living/dining room, modern kitchen with breakfast bar, and a practical bathroom. The long lease (c.970 years) and no onward chain simplify transaction logistics.
The apartment sits at basement level — a material point for occupiers and lettings — and is heated by electric storage heaters. Service charges are relatively high at about £3,124 pa; purchasers should factor this and the electric heating into ongoing running costs. Broadband speeds are average and the building has double glazing installed before 2002.
For investors the location is compelling: immediate proximity to university campuses, Piccadilly and Oxford Road stations, and a dense student/commercial catchment increases rental demand. The property will be sold by Modern Method of Auction; a Reserve Price and buyer’s fees apply, so budget for the reservation fee and potential auction-related costs.
Overall this is a straightforward city-unit with good presentation and a long lease, suited to buy-to-let or an owner-occupier wanting central access. Be mindful of the basement position, service charge level, electric heating and auction sale terms when assessing value and yield.
