Ninth-floor two-bedroom apartment with full-width balcony and picturesque views|Open-plan living with master en-suite and bright glazing|Allocated off-street parking space included|EWS1 certificate available for the building|Leasehold: 105 years remaining (standard leasehold terms)|Service charge c. £3,402.14 pa; ground rent £315 pa|Electric room heaters only — no gas central heating (higher running costs possible)|Located in a busy, multicultural student neighbourhood — potential for local activity/noise
Set on the ninth floor of the modern St George’s Island development, this two-bedroom apartment delivers bright open-plan living, a full-width balcony and allocated off-street parking. The layout suits couples or first-time buyers seeking a low-maintenance city base with easy access to Castlefield Basin and central Manchester transport links.
Practical details are clear: 105 years remain on the lease, an EWS1 certificate is available, and broadband and mobile signal are strong. The property uses electric room heaters rather than gas central heating, which keeps plumbing simpler but can increase electricity costs compared with gas-heated homes.
Running costs and communal obligations are notable: the service charge is approximately £3,402.14 per year and ground rent £315 per year. The building was constructed post-2007 and benefits from double glazing and insulated system-built walls, though the apartment’s heating arrangement and service charges should be factored into affordability calculations.
For buyers prioritising location, low internal maintenance and view-led outdoor space, this apartment represents good value in a popular city development. Those sensitive to ongoing service charges, electric-only heating or a lively, student-influenced neighbourhood should weigh those points before proceeding.
