A two-bedroom apartment on the fifth floor of Jutland House — Piccadilly, Manchester M1
City-centre apartments at this price almost never come with their own canal view. The fifth-floor position keeps the city quiet despite the M1 postcode, the EWS-1 is sorted, and there are 127 years on the lease — buyers can stop reading the small-print and start booking a viewing.
Piccadilly, Manchester M1 2BE
Tucked above the Ashton Canal at the city's eastern edge, this fifth-floor apartment in Jutland House is everything Manchester city-centre living should be — bright, well-proportioned and quietly distinctive. The view from the balcony alone is worth the asking price.
Step inside and the apartment opens immediately into a generous, light-filled living space. The open-plan kitchen / living / dining area runs the full width of the apartment, with a fitted kitchen featuring integrated appliances and stone-effect worktops, leading to a sitting area framed by floor-to-ceiling glazing and a private balcony with uninterrupted canal views.
Two bedrooms, both genuine doubles, sit either side of a contemporary three-piece bathroom finished in clean white tile with a chrome shower over the bath. Modern fixtures, plenty of natural light and considered storage make this an apartment that's been thought through for daily living rather than dressed up for a viewing.
Built in 2005, Jutland House occupies one of the most enviable positions in the M1 postcode. EWS-1 certification is in place and there are 127 years remaining on the lease, making this a straightforward purchase for mortgage buyers. Three minutes' walk to Piccadilly Station, five to the Northern Quarter, and the rest of the city is yours.
Manchester's eastern gateway — where the mainline station, the Ashton Canal and the Northern Quarter meet.
Piccadilly is the M1 postcode at its busiest and best. Five-minute walks take you to mainline trains, the city's most-loved independent restaurants, the canal towpath that runs all the way to Ashton-under-Lyne, and the cobbles of the Northern Quarter. London is two hours by train; Manchester Airport is eighteen minutes via direct rail.
It's also one of the most heavily invested neighbourhoods in the country. The £1.5bn Mayfield regeneration scheme is reshaping the area immediately south of the station — a 6.5-acre new park, more than 1,500 homes, office and retail space, and the relocated Manchester Live arena. For owners, that means an asset in a postcode whose trajectory is firmly upward.
Saturday starts with a flat white at Pollen on the canal, brunch at Federal in the Northern Quarter, an afternoon walk along the Ashton towpath toward the Etihad, dinner at Erst in Ancoats, and a last-orders martini at The Jane Eyre. Sunday: papers at Foundation, roasts at The Marble Arch, gig at Band on the Wall, home by ten.
