City centre developments are springing up in nearly all major cities across the UK and Manchester is no exception. However, with the current housing market slowdown, Manchester, helped by Countryside Properties’ The Edge, is proudly standing out from this crowd. Commanding monthly rents which are at an all time high, everyone wants to be a part of the chic sophistication of city centre living at The Edge.

The Edge, situated in the heart of the city, is defying the residential slowdown taking effect around the country, commanding monthly rents of up to £2,500 and rental yields up to 6.5% - some of the highest along with London and South East. Furthermore, over the past five years Manchester city centre sales have reached an all time high of 2,500 sales a year.

Jennie Platt, a spokesperson from Hunters comments: “The Edge is a stunning development offering exceptional accommodation and facilities in the centre of this cosmopolitan city and we are delighted with the apparently bugetless clientele that it is attracting.

“Commanding premiums from £850 pcm for a one-bedroom apartment up to £2500 for a fully-furnished two-bedroom apartment with river aspect, The Edge is the best address in the city.”

The Edge comprises of 275 apartments and penthouses complete with a 24-hour concierge service and state of the art IT system, tailor made by Hewlett Packard, providing residents with the convenience and service usually associated with a five star hotel

All this and some of the best views over the stunning Manchester skyline, what more could you wish for?"
