This remarkable home blends historic architectural features with high-end contemporary finishes, offering a rare combination of style, space, and convenience.

Historic Setting: Part of the historic Royal Mail buildings on Mirabel Street, this late-Victorian development dates back to 1894. With classic gothic-inspired architecture including ornate brickwork, gables, and finials, the building was granted Grade II listed status in 2001. Formerly used as warehouses and even TV sets after the Post Office relocated in the 1930s, the site offers three grand elevations and a private internal courtyard.

Location Benefits: Ideally located north of the city centre, on the banks of the River Irwell, residents enjoy easy access to multiple vibrant neighbourhoods and excellent transport links throughout Manchester and beyond.
