Vie Building

TO BE SOLD BY ONLINE AUCTION ON 22ND-23RD JULY 2026 UNLESS SOLD PRIOR UNDER AUCTION TERMS
Apartment 6 The Vie Building, 191 Water Street, Manchester, M3 4JA
A waterside investment opportunity located within the Vie Building at 191 Water Street, in the heart of Castlefield. The property comprises a first-floor two-bedroom apartment together with a substantial ground-floor unit, connected via an internal staircase and benefiting from private access. An EWS1 form is available.
The property has previously benefited from planning permission granted by Manchester City Council (Ref: NFMZKSBC6K000 – approved 3rd February 2015) for the change of use from a live/work unit to residential accommodation. This provides established planning history on the title and supports the residential configuration of the accommodation.
The first-floor apartment comprises two double bedrooms, a bathroom and an open-plan kitchen and living area with access to a balcony. A staircase within the apartment leads down to a private access point connecting to the development car park and also providing entry to the ground floor unit.
The ground floor accommodation is a large open-plan space with floor-to-ceiling windows and doors leading externally. The unit already includes a shower room and a small built-in kitchen area, offering scope for reconfiguration subject to any necessary consents.
The current rental income is £900 per month. Once the ground floor element is utilised in line with the previous planning consent and let, the anticipated combined income is approximately £2,400 per month, presenting a strong dual-income investment opportunity in a prime city centre location within walking distance of Deansgate and Manchester’s retail and business core.
