About the city

Piccadilly Wharf brings 72 high-specification apartments to one of Manchester’s most desirable postcodes, rising 15 storeys above Store Street in the heart of M1.

Developed by Merebridge, a North West developer with over 30 years’ experience, the scheme sits directly beside Manchester Piccadilly Station. Just steps away, the £1.4bn Mayfield regeneration is transforming the city’s eastern gateway with up to 1,500 new homes, a 650-bed hotel, and a 10-acre park, construction is already underway. Now in its exclusive pre-launch phase, early investors get first access ahead of the wider market.

WHY INVEST

Location

A prime site on Store Street, in the heart of Manchester’s M1 postcode, directly beside Manchester Piccadilly Station. The plot sits within the city’s established ‘City Centre’ policy zone, bordered by the Ancoats and Northern Quarter conservation area, and neighbours Piccadilly Village, Kampus and New Islington Marina.

Connectivity

Delivered by Merebridge, a North West developer with over 30 years’ experience and a development pipeline exceeding £275 million. This is a pre-launch, developer-direct release of a limited allocation of the 72 apartments, currently 14 units, giving early investors first choice on units and pricing ahead of the wider market launch.

Investor Appeal

A pre-launch opportunity in a prime, regeneration-backed Manchester postcode, delivered by Merebridge, a developer with a 30+ year track record, where rental demand far outpaces supply.

Tenant Demand

The area is positioned as a hotspot for professionals, creatives and high-earning tenants, with demand reinforced by the wider regeneration of the district, anchored by the £1.5 billion Mayfield scheme moments away, against a backdrop of constrained supply for high-quality rental stock in the city centre.

Quality

72 high-specification 1, 2 and 3-bedroom apartments across 15 storeys, sized roughly 510–724 SQ FT, a number with private balconies. The red brick exterior, chosen over an earlier gold metallic proposal, was selected to match the character of the surrounding heritage buildings while improving energy efficiency and durability.

Payment Plan

£5,000 reservation fee 5% on legal exchange Further 15% deposit staged over 12 months 80% on completion.
