Goodwin Fish is delighted to offer for sale a spacious and beautifully presented apartment in a former 20th century packing and shipping warehouse.
Built between 1906 and 1909 in an Edwardian Baroque style and converted in 2003, Asia House retains the "exceptionally rich" entrance hall and stairwell, "lined with veined marble and green and cream faience, with designs of trees and Art Nouveau stained glass".
Located in the heart of Manchester city centre and once housing Noel Gallagher from Oasis, residents of Asia House are within walking distance to Sackville Park, Canal Street, China Town, co-working spaces around the corner at Whitworth Lock or Clockwise Linley House, coffee shops including Foundation or Pollen at Kampus, and JD gym. The property is less than a five minute walk to Oxford Road or Piccadilly Train Station.
Internally, the property is generously proportioned offering an estimated 968 sqft and benefits from the original features associated with a building of its age. Electric blinds service broad windows in both the open plan lounge/diner, as well as the primary bedroom. High ceilings offer a profound sense of openness and even allows the suspension of a playful swing from an original girder. Occupying a prominent corner position and designed for entertaining guests, the dining area provides built-in seating with hidden storage beneath. Complemented by Metro wall tiles, a stylishly designed kitchen provides ample work top and cupboard space, is serviced by integrated appliances including a dishwasher, and wine fridge, and offers the perfect environment for the culinary enthusiast. The primary bedroom benefits from the use of a boutique style en suite, whilst the second double bedroom is ample for guests or could be utilised as a work-from-home space. Patterned floor tiles adorn the primary bathroom, complemented by luxury fixtures and fittings, and provide the perfect opportunity for a relaxing soak. For convenience, a utility area off the hallway houses a washing machine and dryer, and offers additional storage. WiFi-enabled ceramic radiators can can be controlled via an app for added convenience.
The property is offered with vacant possession and must be viewed to be fully appreciated.
