The Loft Shop gets a makeover!

It’s a bit of a Manchester landmark. Everyone knows it, and everyone has their own name for it. It has been called many things, including ‘the tube’, ‘that silver thing on stilts’ and ‘the space ship’, but we fondly refer to it as the ‘Loftshop’ – our home to residential sales and rentals. You see it rising incongruously amongst the post-industrial landscape of Castlefield, just off the Chester Road roundabout.

Well, it’s been there for over 9 years now (I worked there when I first started with Splash all those years ago), and we’ve just done it up! We brought in our old friend and interior designer Fiona Woodward-Kelly to design the makeover. The space was dark and a bit tired, so Fiona felt the key was to brighten the space and make it more user friendly and welcoming. It now sports our lovely new logo on its flanks, while inside is a wonderfully welcoming space where you can come in to chat with our residential team. We’ve got comfy sofas, soft lighting, and our favourite luscious green rug so it really feels like home.

And you can discuss your dream home with us when you come to visit. Whether you’re looking to rent or buy an apartment, or are interested in one of our government-backed affordable schemes, Max, Toby, Dave and Helen would love you to pop in to say hello – let them know you’re coming, and they’ll get a brew on!

Opening times remain the same:
Mon, Tue 11am – 6pm
Wed, Thu 1pm – 8pm (late nights)
Fri, Sat, Sun 11am – 6pm

Urban Splash on Google StreetView

So Google StreetView has launched. I wonder if there’ll be a surge to the confessional? Come on, I know you’ve been peaking in your neighbour’s windows…

It’s great to see some of our projects cropping up on there. The famous Urban Splash Loft Shop in Manchester looks good.

It’s also interesting to take a glimpse back in time at the Chips building during the early stages of construction – just the top layer of writing can be seen.

How far we’ve come – this is how she looks now!
