This well-proportioned 625 sqft home in Manchester’s Ancoats district sleeps up to 4 people, and is the perfect home away-from-home for couples, small families and groups. Design meets architectural drama at this one-bedroom home. The building was constructed in the mid-19th century and formerly the home of the famous T Barlow Brothers Umbrella Factory, now a thoughtfully reimagined Grade II Listed sanctuary.

Inside, each room serves as a striking reminder of the building’s origins. Raw beauty in abundance, with red brick walls and expansive steel beams that instantly impresses. Inspiring colour combinations, provide for a somewhat autumnal sense of beauty by design. As you enter, a hallway leads to an open-plan living area, where materials and textures subtly carve zones; preparing home cooked delicacies in the fully equipped kitchen, sharing them at the dining table or in front of the big screen. Come golden hour, watch as the glow of the sunset to the west floods in through the Georgian barred windows.
