CHIPS sold out but snap up a bargain at the Bridge!
February 04, 2010
THE iconic, Urban Splash / Will Alsopp designed apartment development in one of Manchester’s key regeneration areas, New Islington, generated a whirlwind of media interest and hoards of enquiries as soon as it launched last spring. Now, all 50 of the funky dwellings purchased by Plumlife for affordable rent or sale, have been snapped up!
But aspiring home owners in search of fabulous, urban style residences they can actually afford, need not panic. Plumlife has a range of ultra stylish, contemporary apartments available at other locations, including The Vibe, New Broughton, and The Bridge, Timperley.
The Bridge features seventy-five one and two bedroom apartments located alongside the Bridgewater Canal, in the idyllic village of Timperley, near Altrincham. All apartments come with contemporary fully fitted kitchen, stainless steel oven hob and extractor, modern bathroom suite, secure door entry system and secure parking. They are available to buy from just £43,575 (based on a 35% shared ownership), or on a Rent to HomeBuy basis from just £540.00 pcm.
But only a handful of the stunning one and two bedroom canal side apartments have now been sold or rented, but first-time buyers who fulfil the *eligibility criteria, still have a window of opportunity to bag their dream home! The Bridge show apartment is available to view every Saturday from 11am – 4pm.
Urbanites looking for a stylish pad within minutes of Manchester city centre, should look no further than The Vibe in New Broughton. These highly desirable, cool and spacious dwellings were built to provide high quality, affordable accommodation locally. Featuring stylish, open plan and flexible designs which can be adapted to suit different lifestyles and function, all apartments at The Vibe benefit from secure parking.
All apartments at The Vibe are available to rent under our Plumlife Rent scheme, a special discounted rent initiative which gives you the opportunity to buy your home if you want to in the future. Rents are typically 20% less than open market valuations.
The Vibe’s elegant design features a stunning podium garden with views over to the Manchester City skyline. Extensive structural glazing and wide entrances and corridors create a fantastic sense of space and light, and individual private lobbies, each serving just a few apartments, provide privacy and security.
The new Plumlife Rent scheme will mean that apartments at The Vibe will remain affordable and accessible, despite the economic situation that is preventing many people from accessing desirable and high quality accommodation in Manchester. Rents are rock bottom compared to comparable apartments in the area – from just £334.57 – £356.80
- Eligible people include: Key workers, housing association tenants and anyone who is unable to afford to buy a property outright. Applicants must live or work in the borough where development is situated or have a strong local connection through employment or family. The scheme is designed to help local people who want to buy a home in the area but find they are being priced out the market.
