One-bedroom, one-bathroom flat nestled within a highly sought-after area of Chorlton Borders, South Manchester.
This contemporary residence offers a perfect blend of modern living in a Victorian piece of history with urban convenience, ideal for fans of Chorlton and Didsbury, but without their pricetags.
The thoughtfully designed interior boasts a bright and beautiful living space, providing a comfortable environment for relaxation and entertaining. The well-appointed kitchen is integrated seamlessly, creating the illusion of more space in a one-bed. A generously sized bedroom provides a peaceful retreat. The seller is open to remove the deck bed or leave it - giving options for a second living room beneath. This is complemented by a modern bathroom with a full bath.
This flat represents a fantastic chance to own a piece of Manchester's history. The building was constructed in 1901 by Lord Egerton, who also created the famous Tatton Parl. The property's design maximises natural light and space; with a large south facing bay window letting in maximum light to the living room. The bedroom window allows morning light from the east as you wake up. Its prime location ensures both tranquility and easy access to city life.

The surrounding area offers an abundance of amenities and excellent transport links, making daily life effortless. Residents benefit from superb public transport options, including numerous bus routes, Northern train services, and the Metrolink light rail, with Firswood and Chorlton stations just a 10-15 minute walk away, connecting you effortlessly across Greater Manchester. Major motorway networks, such as the M60, are also easily accessible for those travelling further afield. For leisure and recreation, the historic Alexandra Park (M16 8PJ) is a short stroll away, offering beautifully maintained gardens, sports facilities, and children's play areas. The vibrant city centre provides extensive shopping opportunities, from the vast Manchester Arndale and The Trafford Centre to independent boutiques in the Northern Quarter.
The area is also home to reputable educational institutions, including several primary schools like Our Lady's rc Primary School and Manley Park Primary School, and is within easy reach of world-class universities such as the University of Manchester and Manchester Metropolitan University.

The owner is open to leaving the buyer some non-fixed items to help a first time buyer. You can also request the walls be painted more neutral ready to make it your own.
