A large, fully furnished two-bedroom duplex apartment, a unique gem above a former Victorian pharmacy. With its high ceilings, original features, and a Madchester Hacienda yellow vibe, this 80 sq m (860 sq. ft) apartment is a rare find in the leafy Heatons, just four miles south of Manchester city centre. Its unique personality, charm, and character are sure to captivate you.

Recently renovated by the interior designer landlord, this immaculate modern apartment is a tranquil space in a busy urban village close to local bars, restaurants, supermarkets, parks, and gyms. Manchester Picadilly is 10 minutes by train from Heaton Chapel station, just a 5-minute walk away.

This exceptionally well-furnished apartment, formerly popular on Airbnb, offers a unique living experience equivalent to a high-spec serviced apartment but on a long lease.

The Space

The apartment is a low-allergen retreat with smooth, concrete grey linoleum floors that are easy to clean and maintain. Access is from the rear of the property through a shared hall with the Landlord. You enter the apartment by going up an internal metal staircase directly into the first-floor kitchen-dining room.

The kitchen has a Siemens oven, microwave, refrigerator, separate freezer chest, dishwasher, 5-ring gas hob (with a powerful extractor above), Dualit toaster, kettle, cutlery, crockery, baking trays, saucepans, and more. The black laminate dining table comfortably seats four.

The sizeable vintage bathroom is off the kitchen. It retains the original, now antique, 130-year-old chain flush cistern and sink, adding a touch of history to the apartment. The bathroom features a long bath and an overhead shower, with the gas boiler providing a constant supply of hot water.

The designer lounge features two comfortable white genuine leather sofas and a matching footstool, accompanied by a built-in desk and storage unit below the TV, as well as shelves and a mirror above the exposed brick feature fireplace.

The utility space under the stairs to the second floor, located between the kitchen and lounge, features a washing machine and dryer, an additional sink, and additional storage cabinets.

The enormous main bedroom (22 sq m) on the 2nd floor is like a luxury hotel suite. It has a pocket-sprung mattress, a modern sofa, drawers, a desk, and a tall walk-in wardrobe with shelves and hanging rails.

The sizeable second rear bedroom (14 sq.m) is quiet and sunny in summer. It has a modern sliding wardrobe and desk with a mirror, which offers efficient storage and WFH space.

A modern and energy-efficient gas combi boiler, linked to a Google Nest WiFi Control, heats the apartment, providing a comfortable living environment with instant hot water in the kitchen, utility room, and bathroom.

Painted black wooden Venetian blinds cover the windows in the bedrooms and the lounge.

Location

Conveniently situated on Manchester Road (A6188) in the heart of Heaton Chapel, this apartment offers easy access to local amenities such as the Heaton Hops craft beer bar, Feed cafe, and Vino Buono restaurants, and nearby convenience stores (Aldi, Asda, Morrisons). The vibrant bars and restaurants of Heaton Moor and Levenshulme are just a short distance away. This prime location ensures you are always close to the city's lively heart while enjoying the peace of a suburban setting. The neighbourhood is renowned for its friendly community and vibrant social scene, making it an ideal place to call home.

Heaton Chapel railway station is a mere 5-minute walk, providing regular trains into central Manchester in just 10 minutes. Trains also run in the other direction to the picturesque Peak District National Park. Stockport town centre is 1.5 miles away. Regular bus routes run frequently from the nearby A6 in both directions. For those who drive, junction 27 of the M60, the Greater Manchester outer ring road, is a quick 5-minute drive away. Manchester Airport is 20 minutes away. It's a great location to escape from. Parking is a breeze, with ample free space in the neighbouring streets.

The Life Leisure gym, located just a ten-minute walk away, is impressively equipped with weight room equipment from the 2012 London Olympics. Additionally, the 50-meter swimming pool at Grand Central, near Stockport station, offers a very affordable membership combination, priced at just £35 per month.

Other things to note

Access to the apartment is via a cobblestone alley at the rear, which leads into a courtyard. The courtyard is shared with other apartments and used for staff breaks by local businesses. The area is well-lit and secure, ensuring a safe environment. However, rubbish bins and beer barrels make it look like a set from a New York film.

The Landlord runs an interior design business from the ground-floor showroom (the former pharmacy), which has a doorway to a shared rear entrance hall. He is available most days to accept parcel deliveries. 

You are welcome to use the BT Full Fibre internet connection and WiFi available from the Landlord's business below, free of charge, subject to fair usage.

There is a small private stone yard outside where the rubbish bins are situated.
