Development overview
X1 Trafford Waters
Trafford Waters is one of the most ambitious regeneration projects in Greater Manchester, transforming a former industrial area into a modern, waterside residential and commercial community. The development plans include approximately 3,000 new homes, a mix of apartments and townhouses, alongside commercial space, retail outlets, leisure facilities, educational provision, and healthcare amenities.
The project emphasizes high-quality design, sustainable construction, and integration with its surrounding environment. Landscaped public spaces, waterways, and pedestrian-friendly walkways create a community-oriented environment that promotes both leisure and connectivity. The development is being delivered in phases, with early infrastructure—including roads, utilities, and initial public spaces—already completed, laying the foundation for subsequent residential and commercial phases.
Trafford Waters is designed to appeal to a diverse range of residents, including young professionals, couples, and small families, offering modern living in a vibrant and accessible location. Its waterside setting combined with well-planned green spaces and contemporary architecture provides a lifestyle-led development that balances urban convenience with natural amenity.

High Rental Demand, Prime Location
Strategically located in Trafford, the development benefits from excellent transport links and proximity to key employment, education, and leisure hubs. The site is easily accessible via the M60 motorway and well-served by public transport, including nearby Metrolink stations. It is also close to the commercial hub of Trafford Park and MediaCityUK, making it an ideal location for professionals seeking convenient access to major employment centers.
Residents will have immediate access to the shopping, entertainment, and leisure amenities of Trafford City, including restaurants, gyms, and cinema facilities. In addition, the development’s emphasis on green and waterside spaces provides a lifestyle appeal that enhances rental demand.
The rental market in Trafford and the wider Manchester area has shown consistent growth, underpinned by strong demand for high-quality, new-build homes. Limited supply of modern, well-connected residences has created competitive rental levels, while the ongoing regeneration in the area continues to attract tenants seeking a balance of convenience, lifestyle, and investment security. The location’s strong transport connections, amenity provision, and future development potential make it a prime choice for renters, particularly professionals and young families.
