3Towers on the edge of Manchester city centre have been redesigned and recladded into affordable homes, now available through Rent to HomeBuy. Sylvia is the last of the 3 Towers and the spacious apartments have floor to ceiling glazing, secure parking and private landscaped gardens.
Working with architects Union North, Urban Splash have created 186 new homes out of three 1960’s tower blocks, situated in the Irk Valley in East Manchester. The towers are named after the Pankhurst family, Emmeline, Christabel and Sylvia. One and two bed spacious apartments are available with floor to ceiling windows and great views overlooking Manchester city centre or the green and leafy Irk Valley.
Sylvia apartments are available through Rent to HomeBuy, a government backed scheme to help you get your foot on the housing ladder through shared ownership. It's funded by the New Homes and Communities Agency and is flexible to suit your needs, so you can either start by buying a share in your new home now, or simply rent at 80% of market rent, allowing you to save for a deposit and buy later.
The towers are in the fringe of the city. Just a ten minute walk from the Northern Quarter and slap bang in the middle of the Irk Valley, a green and leafy space that no-one in Manchester knows about. Peace and quiet next to people and light.
