By The Vendor.. - This lovely house has given me some great memories and the perfect spot to explore the city, with great places to eat, the Ancoats marina for dog walking (and Pollen bakery) and everything else I need within walking distance. It has lovely neighbours and a genuine feeling of community and safety, this has been the perfect home to me for the last 11 years and there is no where else in Manchester I would rather be. However, the time has come to relocate and pass this wonderful home on to the next owners, I hope it gives you as much happiness as it has given me.
