Overview
Northern Crafthouse is a prominent mixed-use building on Bury New Road in Whitefield – one of the main arterial routes between Manchester and Bury. The property sits moments from Whitefield Metrolink station, giving it strong visibility and accessibility in a well-established suburban commercial location.
The building forms part of the Mortimer Group commercial portfolio and represents our approach to hospitality investment: acquiring well-located assets, securing the right tenants, and managing them for the long term.
The Detail
The ground floor is leased to Northern Crafthouse, an independent hospitality operator that has established itself as a popular local venue. The upper floors have been reconfigured as modern attic-style office space, separately leased to a creative design company.
The split use – hospitality below, office above – reflects a deliberate approach to maximising the asset’s potential while keeping it rooted in the community it serves.
The Outcome
The building is fully let across both uses, generating stable income from two separate tenants in complementary sectors. It stands as a strong example of active asset management within our commercial portfolio – a well-located building, thoughtfully managed, delivering consistent returns.
