Chorlton has a reputation for being one of Manchester’s most creative, diverse and community-focused neighbourhoods. With leafy streets, a vibrant high street, parks, independent shops and a buzzing café culture, it blends suburban calm with city vibes. 

Emerald Way puts you right in the heart of it all, overlooking the peaceful Beech Road Park and just a short stroll from all that Chorlton has to offer. With stylish, high-quality apartments available through shared ownership, many with a private balcony, it’s a golden opportunity to live in one of Manchester’s most sought-after locations without overstretching your budget. 

You’ll be investing in a secure home that’s truly yours: one where you can paint the walls your favourite colour, bring your pets and make a place to call home. 

Emerald Way is GECKO Homes’ latest shared ownership development, right in the heart of Chorlton, Manchester. Buying a home here through shared ownership is simple. You buy a proportion of the home with a mortgage and pay rent on the remaining share.  

One big advantage is the smaller deposit. It’s based on the percentage of the property you’re buying, so it’s less than if you needed a deposit based on the full value.  

If you were buying a 50% share of a home valued at £200,000, you would need a £10,000 deposit, which is a 10% deposit based on the £100,000 value of the share you’re buying.  

If you want to buy more shares in future, you can. Eventually you can buy all of the shares to entirely own your home. 

Chorlton is packed with personality. Grab brunch at The Creameries, enjoy craft beer at The Beagle or The Font, or catch up with friends over small plates and wine at Mary & Archie. Love vintage shopping or organic groceries? The Makers Market, Unicorn Grocery and Chorlton Green are all local favourites. 

For green space, you’re spoiled for choice. Stroll or cycle to Chorlton Water Park, Longford Park or the Mersey Valley. There’s a thriving arts and culture scene too, with live music, local galleries, theatre nights and creative workshops all part of the local activities. 

With a range of one and two bedroom apartments available, including a small number of studios and top-floor penthouses with wrap-around corner balconies, there’s a space to suit every need.
