Situated on the third floor of the prestigious Forge building, the property offers a sophisticated blend of contemporary design and tranquil canal-side living. As part of the multi-award-winning Middlewood Locks development, this two-bedroom, two-bathroom residence is perfectly positioned at the gateway to Manchester city centre, offering a serene escape just a short stroll from the vibrant districts of Spinningfields and Deansgate. The property is defined by its exceptional sense of light and space, characterized by high-specification finishes and floor-to-ceiling windows that provide an enviable outlook over the surrounding urban landscape.
The heart of the home is an expansive open-plan living and dining area that seamlessly integrates a minimalist kitchen. Designed for both functionality and style, the kitchen is equipped with premium Bosch appliances, handleless cabinetry, and sleek granite-effect worktops. This social hub flows naturally onto a significant private, east-facing terrace, which serves as an impressive outdoor extension of the living space. This rare external feature offers ample room for alfresco dining or morning coffee while overlooking the calm waters of the canal and the beautifully landscaped communal courtyards below.
The living quarters are equally well-appointed, headlined by a spacious principal suite. This master bedroom features fitted wardrobes and a luxury en-suite shower room finished with Vitra sanitaryware and a monsoon shower. The second double bedroom is highly versatile, providing comfortable accommodation for guests or an ideal environment for a professional home office. A further designer bathroom serves the rest of the apartment, featuring a three-piece suite, floating fixtures, and elegant concealed lighting.
Life at The Forge provides more than just a home; it offers a curated lifestyle within a thriving community. Residents benefit from the convenience of on-site amenities, including artisan coffee shops and a craft brewery, while the nearby Regent Retail Park ensures everyday essentials are always within reach. With secure video entry, an on-site caretaker, and high-performance energy efficiency throughout, this apartment represents a premier opportunity for those seeking the very best of Salford and Manchester living.
