£150,000
£200-£300 a month... and £100 service charge
Freehold managers and managing agents will be pissing themselves all the way to the bank.

What do we think? Is this the future for housing or are we just hamster caging people to get them used to paying massive amounts for tiny spaces in places like London?

They look nice and I'm sure 1G internet is lovely, but they could get a house.
An actual house for less than that and commute into Manchester.

Looks great, space is over-rated.
 
I'm sitting in a 36m2 double garage right now. It's not small. Easily big enough for a 1 bed apartment.

More people, less space, less resources - small is the way to go.
 
Definitely better than all the hmo’s That cram 10 people into one house. The problems they create with overflowing bins, cars parked all over the place and a general lack of pride in the area they live.

So it’s a yes from me.

Says they are Cheadle Hulme. Why the hell would you live in a box all the way out there, transport to the city is a joke too. Nice enough there though.
Maybe they know something tram related I don't?

I'd get a two bed in Hulme with parking and share for £800 a month, bunch of pansies, the dealers et al leave you alone and can walk to town in 20-25 mins.

Just checked they are up to nearly a grand a month now from two years ago, hells teeth. Alright then rent a 3 bed house in burnage between 2 for £750

That £200 - £300 ground rent is a year, not a month
