Mount Yard

Mount Yard is a residential development delivering a collection of contemporary apartments and townhouses close to Manchester city centre. Set alongside Angel Meadow, the scheme combines city living with access to one of the area’s largest green spaces, offering a quieter, more residential feel while remaining well connected to the city.

The development brings together modern architecture and the character of nearby industrial warehouses. Buildings are designed with clean lines and robust materials, creating homes that feel current but rooted in their surroundings. Across the site, the focus is on simple, well-planned living spaces that make the most of natural light and outlook.

Homes at Mount Yard are arranged to support everyday life in the city. Residents have access to shared amenities including an on-site gym and a communal terrace, alongside practical features such as secure cycle storage. Some homes benefit from private outdoor space, while all are designed to feel calm and considered rather than over-engineered.

DEX built Mount Yard. FEC was the developer. The project required careful coordination within a constrained urban setting, alongside close attention to detail across a mix of building types. From structure through to completion, the emphasis was on build quality, consistency, and delivering homes that would stand up to long-term use.

Mount Yard is part of a wider cluster of developments in this area of Manchester, contributing to the steady growth of a neighbourhood shaped around homes, green space, and walkability rather than transient city living. Its proximity to Angel Meadow and the city centre places it firmly within Manchester’s evolving residential landscape.

DEX’s role at Mount Yard reflects its experience delivering residential schemes that balance design intent with practical delivery. The aim was straightforward: create well-built homes in a strong location, with shared spaces that support daily life and a setting that feels settled from the outset.
