The Edge, Clowes Street, Salford

Positioned on the 14th and 15th floors of ‘The Edge’—a contemporary riverside development—this two-bedroom duplex apartment offers light, location, and far-reaching city views. Floor-to-ceiling glazing wraps the home in natural light, while outdoor spaces extend its footprint into the open air. Complemented by a 24-hour concierge service and a secure allocated underground parking space, the apartment is ideally situated just a short walk from both Spinningfields and Deansgate.

The Space

Entry is on the lower level, where a hallway leads to two bedrooms, a family bathroom, utility cupboard, and additional storage. The principal bedroom opens onto a south-east facing balcony and features built-in wardrobes and white plantation shutters, offering privacy and a soft, homely finish. The en-suite bathroom contrasts monochrome black floor and wall tiles with whitewashed walls and timber shelving. A countertop basin, walk-in shower, and heated towel rail complete the space with subtle detail and functionality.

The second bedroom is bright and welcoming, also fitted with built-in wardrobes and plantation shutters for light control. The family bathroom mirrors the en-suite design, adding a bath with overhead shower, and a heated towel rail. A dedicated utility cupboard comfortably houses a washer and dryer, while a further storage cupboard provides everyday convenience.

A curved staircase leads to the upper floor, where a glazed panel offers a glimpse into the main living space beyond, allowing light to filter through to the landing. This level also includes a WC and a further storage cupboard. 

At the heart of the home is a spacious open-plan kitchen, dining, and living area. The kitchen is finished in crisp white cabinetry with matte black fixtures and contrasting black worktops. Integrated appliances and generous storage ensure functionality, while a kitchen island offers both additional workspace and a central point for social connection.

Sliding glass doors lead onto a private terrace finished in decking, with space for dining, lounging, and entertaining. An outdoor storage cupboard is discreetly integrated for added convenience.

Tucked around the corner from the kitchen, the living area is softly defined, creating a sense of separation while preserving the open flow of the space. Glazing along two elevations floods the room with light and frames views across Manchester and beyond to the Peak District. White plantation shutters continue the cohesive palette and allow light and privacy to be finely tuned throughout the day.

The home is equipped with an integrated alarm system and air conditioning, ensuring year-round comfort. 

The Area

Located just a 5-minute walk from Spinningfields and Deansgate, the apartment is perfectly situated to enjoy Manchester’s best restaurants, bars, and shops. Exchange Square, central to additional dining, entertainment, and shopping options, is less than a 10-minute walk away.

Salford continues to evolve through significant regeneration, bringing new green spaces, independent eateries, and improved pedestrian and cycle routes. Local favourites such as Porta and Foundation Coffee, along with proximity to Salford Quays and MediaCity, enhance the area’s vibrancy and appeal.

Families are supported by a strong network of Outstanding-rated primary and secondary schools, while commuters benefit from exceptional connectivity. Salford Central is just 4 minutes away on foot, with Manchester Victoria and Exchange Square Metrolink also close by. The M56, M60, and M62 motorways are easily accessible, and Manchester Airport is within a 25-minute drive.
