Whitworth House

Set within Whitworth House - a red-brick former warehouse in the Whitworth Street Conservation Area - this third-floor apartment offers generous proportions and character. Double-height ceilings, solid oak flooring, and large windows frame uninterrupted views across Sackville Gardens.

 

The Space

 

A spacious hallway sets a calm introduction, offering ample room for storage. From here, two bedrooms and a bathroom unfold across the plan. Both bedrooms are generous in scale, their tall windows and ceiling heights amplifying light and volume.

 

The bathroom is fully tiled and features a bath with overhead shower, underfloor heating, and built-in storage.

 

The plan culminates in a generous living and dining space, where a corner bay window frames views across Sackville Gardens. The open plan allows for distinct zones - a comfortable living area, dining space, and kitchen tucked away, yet open.

 

The kitchen is neatly arranged in an L-shape, with white cabinetry and black worktops creating a clean contrast. Integrated appliances keep the design neat, while a separate cupboard provides additional storage.

 

Above, a mezzanine level overlooks the main living space - a versatile area suited to sleeping, lounging, or extra storage.

 

The Area

 

Positioned where Whitworth Street meets Sackville Street, Whitworth House sits within a conservation area celebrated for its grand red-brick warehouses and rich architectural heritage. The apartment is within easy reach of Gay Village, Oxford Road, the Northern Quarter, and the University of Manchester. 

 

An abundance of cafés, restaurants, and cultural venues - including the Manchester Art Gallery - are just a short walk away. Five minutes from the apartment, Kampus offers a canal-side garden setting with local favourites such as Pollen and Nell’s. Directly opposite, Sackville Gardens provides a peaceful green space, while the newly landscaped Mayfield Park lies just a ten-minute walk away.

 

Both Manchester Piccadilly and Manchester Oxford Road train stations are less than a ten-minute walk from the building. The area is also well connected by road, with the A57 close by and the M602, M60, M62, and M56 all easily accessible - linking Whitworth House to the wider region and Manchester Airport in under 30 minutes.

 

The apartment has previously achieved a rental income of £1,450 per month.
