This compact one-bedroom apartment sits on the first floor in the heart of Altrincham, a short walk from cafes, shops, restaurants and rail links to Manchester. The open-plan living/kitchen space and modern bathroom make for a low-maintenance city pied-à-terre or starter home; the bedroom includes fitted sliding wardrobes. The property is offered with the potential benefit of no onward chain.
Practical points to note: the flat is leasehold (241 years remaining) with an annual service charge of £1,936.96 and a ground rent of £300. There is no allocated parking — on-street permit parking may be available subject to application. Heating is by electric room heaters, which can be more expensive than gas alternatives.
At about 421 sq ft this is a small but efficiently laid-out home, ideal for a first-time buyer seeking a central, low-upkeep property or an investor looking for a city-centre let. Broadband speeds are average and mobile signal is excellent. The building is a conversion set on a narrow paved street with no private outdoor space, so expect town-centre living and street/city views only.
Viewings are recommended to appreciate the apartment’s condition and location. The combination of long lease, central setting and modern finishes makes it practical for immediate occupation, though buyers should factor running costs (service charge, electric heating) into affordability calculations.
