An exciting new £70 million sustainable build-to-rent (BTR) development in Manchester city centre will go ahead after being given the green light by planners.
Proposals by property investment and development company Zephyr X for a 23-storey residential scheme at the corner of Carnarvon Street and Cheetham Hill Road have today (November 21) been granted detailed planning consent in a unanimous vote by Manchester City Council.
The proposals by Zephyr X, which has extensive experience and expertise in property development and ownership, include 237 one and two-bedroom apartments and a ground floor commercial unit.
Construction of the design-conscious development of new homes for rent on land bound by Cheetham Hill Road, Carnarvon Street and Gibson Place, is expected to begin next year, according to Zephyr X managing director Graham Haydon-White.
Graham said: “Our development offers an exciting opportunity to support the ongoing regeneration of this increasingly vibrant corner of Manchester, helping to meet the established demand for high-quality accommodation in the city centre.
“We are very grateful to Manchester City Council for supporting our vision to deliver this fantastic new build-to-rent residential development at Cheetham Hill Road. We are looking forward to appointing contractors and starting on site next year.”
The building has been designed by award-winning Manchester-based architects Hawkins\Brown. It will provide an elegant and composed addition to the Manchester skyline, complementing the cluster of new buildings emerging around the Great Ducie Street, Green Quarter and Red Bank area.
Zephyr X, with a particular focus on BTR and healthcare facilities, leads the way in creating beautiful, state-of-the-art spaces that integrate the latest technology with cutting-edge design, enabling people to live their best lives.
