Welcome to
City Gardens
B ROADENING HORIZONS

At DeTrafford Estates, we look beyond the conventional

and mundane. Our latest development, City Gardens,
is the third phase of a pioneering project harnessing
the convenience of inner city living with the attractions
of appealing outdoor living space – providing a blueprint
for modern, contemporary living.

Having won plaudits for our concept of private,

skyline retreats and tree-lined secluded courtyards
– a distinctive idea hallmarking Sky Gardens and Roof
Gardens developments – we are bringing this forward-
looking philosophy to the neighbouring site.

City Gardens borrows and builds on these innovations,

once again placing the community at the heart of the
project by creating dynamic and diverse public spaces.

City Gardens
LUXURY HOME COMFORTS

A new home in City Gardens is your chance to share

our vision of what successful, contemporary inner
city living can offer. Bricks and mortar are just the
raw materials of new housing developments. It takes
a lot more to build a successful new residential
community with the space to live, grow and enjoy.

Understanding this has informed and driven our plans

for this next phase of the Sky Gardens development.
We are offering a further 109 exceptional apartments
at the heart of the city, with a range of sizes and bed-
rooms, all with access to a communal roof gardens
– and with an infrastructure that offers luxury home
comforts and a real sense of community.

In looking to the future, City Gardens also reflects

a proud past – presenting a unique perspective on
modern living, while drawing inspiration from a rich
local heritage. Stunning gallery bedrooms and full
height windows create open, contemporary living
spaces – distinctive design that showcases an app-
ealing choice of apartments and triplexes inspired
by New York living. Outside, the lines of the building’s
attractive façade acknowledge the grand mills and
warehouses that contribute to the neighbourhood’s
conservation status.

Manchester
A WORLD CLASS CIT Y

Manchester is going places. Its renaissance is

hallmarked by a rising international profile and
population – quite simply it’s the fastest growing
city in the UK.

Internationally renowned as the birthplace of the

Industrial Revolution and the computer, The University
of Manchester is today pioneering the development of
graphene – a ‘miracle material’ that is set to revolutionise
the 21st Century. The city’s dynamic knowledge-based
industries benefit from the innovation and research
resources of four Universities, while Manchester also
boasts the largest financial, professional and legal
services sector outside of London.

Media City and the presence of the BBC and ITV

reinforce Manchester as a creative hub, while it is also
celebrated in the football world as home to United and
City – names that resonate globally. And Manchester
has the connections to justify its standing with an
airport serving 200 destinations worldwide.

Manchester
A WORLD CLASS CIT Y

Music icon Ian Brown of the Stone Roses famously

said: “We’ve got everything except a beach.” So it is
not difficult to see how Manchester’s relentless rise
has been boosted by its extensive cultural, media,
music, and sporting scene.

Top rock bands originate and flourish here, alongside

a wonderful opera house, symphony and chamber
orchestras. When you add the buzzing nightlife, a
wide choice of bars and restaurants, outdoor space,
museums and great shopping areas – including the
biggest city centre shopping mall in the UK – you
have an eclectic mix. This helps to sustain and support
Manchester as a popular place to live, work and invest.

City Gardens reflects a growing demand for stylish

and sustainable inner city living. Apartments combine
innovative design and attractive outdoor space in a
21st Century approach that mirrors the city’s ambitions.

Castlefield
A THRIVING COMMUNITY
AT T H E H E A R T O F T H E C I T Y

Castlefield is an inner city oasis of quaint cobbled

streets, canals and waterside al fresco wining and
dining. Britain’s first Urban Heritage Park – with its
attractive canal basin, open spaces, converted mills,
bridges and viaducts – has become one of the city’s
most sought-after residential areas. It is particularly
popular with professionals who combine the
undoubted lifestyle benefits with close proximity
to the city centre and excellent road and rail access.

With a heritage dating back to Roman times,

Castlefield today offers vibrant, modern waterside
living, complemented by appealing bars, restaurants,
music and entertainment. Among the attractions are
the celebrated Castlefield Bowl outdoor arena, the
Castlefield Gallery and the popular Museum of
Science and Industry.

Castlefield is quite simply a haven at the heart of

the city offering a more relaxed pace of life – but
you can be sure that, when the bright lights of the
city centre beckon, you will always be close at hand.
