The first high-rise residential apartment block to be purpose-built on the Quays, Imperial Point was completed in 2001 and paved the way for waterside living in the area, with its stylish apartments offering the modern luxury demanded by young professionals.
The 16-storey tower, which operates a full concierge service, sits alongside the Lowry Outlet Mall on Pier 8 at Central Wharf. Its location at the heart of the Quays, around the corner from the Lowry Theatre and next door to its sister building, Sovereign Point, mean that it is a popular choice for tenants, investors and owner-occupiers. Many of the one- and two-bed apartments, some of which have a duplex layout, have water views that can be enjoyed from the properties’ generous balconies.
Salford Quays has benefited from extensive regeneration over the past twenty years. Now a thriving business district, residential area and culture zone (being home to MediaCityUK, Imperial War Museum North and the Lowry arts complex), it’s a great alternative to living in Manchester city centre. The growing number of shops, bars and restaurants means that it is favoured by young professionals, mature students and families. The Quays are particularly popular with commuters due to the high number of developments with parking spaces, the proximity to the motorway and excellent public transport links, including several Metrolink stations.
