Abito - Abito brings compact living to Salford Quays
Work Starts on Second Abito Development in Greater
Manchester
Following the success of its Greengate scheme in
Salford, the award-winning Abito has started work on its
next scheme at Clippers Quay, Salford Quays.
The 290 multi-functional quayside Abito apartments,
eight of which will be Abito Duos - two bedroom
apartments with roof terraces - are based on the same
ingenious principal of the intelligent, compact living
spaces at Greengate.
Already, 190 apartments have been reserved, many by
those who expressed interest or who have also bought at
Greengate.
The latest Abito apartments at Salford Quays will be
just as cleverly designed, by architects Building Design
Partnership (BDP) but with additional and improved
features to both individual apartments including a
larger bathroom with bath, and internal and external
features such as seating in the internal courtyard.
The apartments are once again aimed at first time buyers
and young professionals, with prices starting from
£107,000 for the standard apartment.
Each will still be fitted with a special full sized,
fold-away bed and the central ‘pod’, which includes a
bathroom, washer/dryer and a compact kitchen, allowing
for a clutter-free lifestyle. Space above the pod can
also be used as an extra bed-deck.
All apartments have their own balcony, which are
designed to allow residents as much or as little privacy
as they require.
The Abito Duos will have double the standard 356 sq ft
space with two bedrooms, a lounge and kitchen area and
separate bathroom. Duos also come with an amazing 600 sq
ft roof terrace, complete with its own bespoke-designed
canopy to protect from the elements.
Close to the heart of Salford Quays and with views
across to Old Trafford football ground, Clippers Quay
has excellent transport links, with Pomona Metrolink
stop only two minutes walk away and within five minutes
drive to the M602/M60 motorway network.
The scheme has now been released for sale and is
expected to be completed in Autumn 2008. A marketing
suite which highlights the Abito concept is now open at
the Greengate development and provides sales information
for both schemes.
Les Lang, Managing Director of Abito said: “We are
delighted to begin working on our second Abito scheme.
With its scenic waterside setting, great transport links
and thriving arts and leisure facilities, Salford Quays
is fast becoming one of the most vibrant and
sought-after locations in Greater Manchester.
“Following the Greengate scheme, we have learned a great
deal about the demographics of our buyers and will be
adapting the development to suit their needs as well as
create a stunning, well-thought out, innovative product
aimed at owner-occupiers and first time buyers that
suits both their needs and their pocket.”
