THE 3 TOWERS

They stand tall in the green and pleasant Irk Valley
and only a short walk from the Northern Quarter,
giving you all the benefits of living high in the sky
at a fraction of the cost of living on Deansgate.

About the Towers

We found three towers on the edge of Manchester. Classic 60s high rise. Lost in the undergrowth. Empty of people, but full of potential.

So we’re reclaiming them for a new generation. Redesigning, recladding, redoing. Turning high-rise into high-style. Yes these are old tower blocks, and yes, they’re going to be amazing places to live. These are the 3 Towers.

But we couldn’t just call them any old rubbish. West Centro or The Lifestyle Pad. These Towers have got character. They’re a triple act, a team. If they’re going to be real homes, we thought, they’ll need new names...

Our saviour was a young lass from round these parts. The lovely Virginia Holbrook came up with the inspired idea of naming them after three ladies from Manchester’s past; our very own feminist superheroines. Christabel, Sylvia and Emmeline Pankhurst no less. Forget modern day ladies, the WAGS and the hair extensions. The Pankhursts made a difference. Let’s celebrate them instead. Sisters doing it for themselves. That’s the wrong decade, but you get the picture.

First Time Buyers’ Initiative

First Time Buyers’ Initiative is coming to Sylvia, 3 Towers

Here is a great opportunity to get on the property ladder and live in an amazing place.

The First Time Buyers’ Initiative has been set up by English Partnerships as part of the government’s Homebuy scheme and we are delighted that Sylvia, 3 Towers will be our second development to be part of this.

First Time Buyers’ Initiative is designed to enable first time buyers, who cannot otherwise afford to buy a new home, to purchase a new property with an affordable mortgage and with government assistance to top up what they can already borrow from a bank... simple really! The idea is that the buyer can then pay some, or all, of the money back to the government once, and if, they are in a position to do so.

Applications are now open! Follow our 4 easy steps to becoming a first time buyer:

Register your interest with us here.
Fill out an application form which can be found on the Homebuy agent, Plumlife’s website www.plumlife.co.uk along with the full terms and conditions for the FTBI if you have not already done so. Plumlife will assess your eligibility for FTBI.
Come along to our information week at our new show apartment in Christabel, 3towers from the 21st- 25th April 2008 and meet our sales team. We will also have mortgage advisors and solicitors around should you need any help with the technical bits.
If your application has been approved by Plumlife then you will have an opportunity to reserve an apartment of your choice from the 26th April 2008. Residents of Cheetham and Harpurhey wards have priority for this scheme, following which it will be on a first come, first served basis.

Should you require any further information then please call 0161 839 8998.

Where are the Towers

Whether you’re after a super-fresh cosmo city living escapade; or would be happier rolling round in the grass with the rabbits and birds, the 3 Towers are a stone cold winner. All the benefits of living above the city, with your feet firmly in the grass.

The 3 Towers are slap bang in the middle of the Irk Valley – a green and leafy space that nobody in Manchester knows about. Peace and quiet next to people and light. They are only a short walk from the World’s Best City (that’s Manchester to you and me). From your doorstep to Matt & Phreds quicker than it takes to sink a pint. That’s walking distance too – take that commuting! Could life get any better?
