The development itself is just of Chester Road, with easy access into the City, or onto the Mancunian Way, giving you the entire City within easy driving distance, and Deansgate itself just a short walk.
Entrance into the development is through a secure gated access point, with the apartment benefitting from an allocated parking space in the residents car park. To the ground floor there is a concierge, post room and lifts to all floors.

Situated on the top floor of the building the first thing you will notice as you enter the apartment itself is how bright the space is, with a large entrance hallway leading through into the main living room space.

This open living/dining room and kitchen is a fantastic size and allows you to enjoy the best of all three worlds in terms of relaxing, entertaining or cooking without feeling cramped. The apartment itself comes with an air conditioning system to the living room and bedroom, ideal for those warmer summer days!
Via the living room sliding doors you can access the full width balcony space, with views over the locks, and into the City Centre, this is the perfect spot to relax at the end of the day, watching the world go by, without having your view blocked by another high rise!

The kitchen is ample for all your white goods, and has plenty of work surface space, with wall mounted cupboards providing the extra storage.

At the other end of the hallway you have the main bedroom with it's own dressing area and en-suite shower room, making this the perfect main suite, especially if you have guests.

The second double bedroom sits in the middle, again with the excellent City Centre views, and across the hall is the main family bathroom suite. This houses a bath with shower over, WC and sink.
