Listed with Purplebricks, the apartment is described as being ‘in a picturesque street in the heart of Ancoats’.

Residents in the 60s didn’t like the connotations so the ‘S’ was dropped from the start and the ‘ry’ from the end, and it became Anita Street.
Nowadays, residential properties around Ancoats are almost entirely apartment buildings, making this row of terraces even more of a sought-after gem.
