25 Church Street, Northern Quarter, Manchester, M4 1PE

Set on the second floor of 25 Church Street - a former telephone exchange in Manchester’s Northern Quarter - this two-bedroom apartment celebrates the building’s warehouse heritage with exposed brickwork, steel beams, and sash windows.

The Space The apartment is entered via a hallway lined with built-in storage. Ahead, a glazed partition gives a glimpse into the open-plan kitchen, living, and dining area beyond.

Wood flooring runs throughout, drawing the eye towards a corner room where sash windows on two sides offer plenty of light.

Exposed red brickwork frames these openings, while a column and overhead steel beams speak to the building’s industrial past. The kitchen is slightly set apart by grey tiled flooring.

Grey cabinetry with integrated appliances runs in a U-shaped arrangement, complemented by an off-white brick-tiled splashback.

The principal bedroom is generous in size, with the same brick and sash window detailing as the living area, softened by carpet underfoot.

Its en-suite bathroom takes on a warm palette, pairing tonal wall and floor tiles with a walk-in shower, heated towel rail, and open storage. The second bedroom introduces flexibility.

A sliding door allows it to open directly into the main living area, lending itself equally well to use as a guest room, study, or additional lounge.

The main bathroom contrasts crisp white walls with patterned monochrome floor tiles. A bath with overhead shower, heated towel rail, and built-in vanity shelf complete the space.

The Area Church Street sits in the heart of Manchester’s Northern Quarter - a vibrant district where the neighbourhood houses a dynamic blend of independent galleries, cafés, and creative spaces.

Highlights include the iconic Mackie Mayor, brunch favourites such as Foundation and Federal, and local design-led shops like Nordic Muse and Deadstock General Store.

Cultural spots such as Egoiste Gallery and Unitom Bookshop add depth to the area’s creative rhythm, while music venues like Band on the Wall speak to its long-standing artistic spirit.

The apartment is also perfectly placed for everyday convenience. Just moments away lie the Arndale and Exchange Square, offering a wide range of retail, dining, and transport options.

Neighbouring Ancoats and New Islington extend the lifestyle offering even further, with canalside cafés, bakeries, and bars just a short stroll away.

Families are well served by several primary and secondary schools rated ‘Outstanding’ by Ofsted.

Manchester Piccadilly and Manchester Victoria train stations are both within a 10-minute walk, with Piccadilly offering direct trains to London Euston in just over two hours.

For drivers, the M56, M60, and M62 are easily accessible, and Manchester International Airport is just 25 minutes by car.
