Four strikingly original contemporary style buildings will offer a total of eighty five one, two and three-bedroom apartments appealing to a wide range of purchaser buying at all stages of the property ladder.
With an emphasis on quality design and luxury specification, the apartments will create a stylish living experience with balconies and rooftop terraces, say Nikal. They apartments will be delivered by Nikal’s luxury homebuilding arm, Hillcrest Homes.
The residential element is complemented by a new boulevard of cafes, restaurants and bars, together with a luxury office building suitable as an HQ.
The buildings will be set within a stunning new public realm – one of the largest new public spaces to be created in Altrincham.
This central boulevard will link the new quarter directly to the Transport Interchange as well as provide an attractive outdoor environment in which residents, workers, shoppers and diners can relax and socialise.
