Recently reduced and offered chain-free, this two-bedroom duplex in the Manhattan building places city-centre living right next to Chinatown. The contemporary open-plan ground floor opens onto a private balcony and benefits from large windows that flood the space with light. The development includes 24-hour security and one allocated secure garage space with a private shutter — a rare find in central Manchester.
Upstairs are two double bedrooms, a master with en-suite and a separate family bathroom. The apartment totals about 689 sq ft and was built in 2019, so finishes are modern and well maintained. Furniture is optional, making it easy for either immediate occupation or letting to professionals and students nearby.
Important running costs and tenure details are clear: this is a leasehold property with about 225 years remaining, a high annual service charge (£4,067.99) and ground rent (£424.24) that rises with RPI. Heating is electric (room heaters), which can mean higher energy bills compared with gas-heated homes. The surrounding area is a busy, multicultural student neighbourhood offering excellent transport, shops and leisure but can be lively at night.
In short, this apartment suits buyers seeking central, low-maintenance city living with secure parking and concierge services. It also suits investors targeting strong rental demand, but factor in service charges, electric heating and the urban location when assessing long-term costs.
