A well-proportioned ground-floor apartment in a converted Victorian mansion, set in the heart of West Didsbury Village. The apartment extends to approximately 845 sq ft and offers two double bedrooms, two bathrooms and a private entrance — an appealing package for first-time buyers or professionals seeking space, convenience and a village feel.
The living and dining area is bright with dual-aspect windows and a south-west aspect over attractive communal gardens. The principal bedroom includes a curved feature wall and an en-suite; both bedrooms have bespoke fitted wardrobes. The adjacent separate kitchen is fitted with modern wall and base units and integrated appliances.
Practical points are straightforward and transparent: the property is leasehold with c.128 years remaining, an annual service charge of £1,372.32 (£114.36 pcm) and a small ground rent of £175 per year. There is secure gated allocated parking and attractive shared gardens. Double glazing was installed before 2002 and the building has solid brick walls with internal insulation; buyers should note these are older fabric and window fittings which may be less efficient than current standards.
Location is a major asset — immediate access to independent shops, cafes, restaurants and the Metrolink station within a short stroll. No onward chain speeds a transaction for anyone wanting a swift move. Overall this apartment suits buyers who prioritise space, village-centre location and secure parking, while accepting leasehold costs and potential future upgrades to glazing or insulation.
