This trendy studio apartment offers unique open plan living accommodation, finished to an industrial-chic design where exposed brick walls bring tasteful contrast to the kitchen’s white tiled splashbacks, vibrant Liebherr fridge, and subtle grey kitchen cupboards with steel fittings. The kitchen is ready to go, featuring integrated appliances including an AEG oven, induction hob and extractor. In keeping with the industrial-chic design, the place is lit by four hanging bulb pendant lights which complement the reclaimed timber clad window box – a perfect spot to pop down some cushions and use as a window seat to read a good book and watch the world go by. This large window allows plenty of natural light to pour in and bounce around the studio off the polished concrete floor.
Like the brand-new kitchen, the bathroom is shiny and new, and boasts a fresh contemporary design of white brick wall tiling with a contrasting grey tiled floor, dark grey feature wall, and large wall mirror. The three-piece suite includes a modern walk-in shower, wash basin, chrome heated towel rail and WC.

A Microcosm Of A Big City
Preston can be best described as not so much a small city, but a microcosm of a big city. It has all the things you would expect to find in a much larger city; fewer in number, but not necessarily in scale.
Guildhall Street and its immediate vicinity is an ever increasing rich mix of cafes, restaurants and bars that offer something for everybody. Large established brands like Bistrot Pierre rub shoulders with little independents likethe cheekily titled burger bar, We Don’t Give a Fork. And if you like something a bit quirky, there’s the eccentric Mystery Tea House which offers a choice of over 120 brews. If you’re more of a traditionalist you’ll be drawn to Brucciani’s, and Italian café and ice cream parlour whose deco takes you back to the 1940s! And right next door is the UK’s first kfc, opened by the Colonel himself in 1965. If you’re looking for a wider selection of food and drink, Preston Markets is open 6 days a week and serves fresh local produce. Luckily, there are a number of city centre gyms to choose from where you can burn off all the calories!
The Union Carriage Works building is just a couple minutes’ walk from Fishergate, Preston’s main retail street, and Winckley Square – both of which have recently undergone multimillion pound regeneration. Preston Train Station is just a 4-minute walk away providing access across the country, with a direct line to London taking just over 2 hours. And the University of Central Lancashire, one of the largest universities in the UK, can also be found here in the city of Preston.
Preston’s central location makes for easy access to the Lake District and Yorkshire Dales National Parks, as well as the Lancashire coastline. On Preston’s doorstep is the Ribble Valley, which is as famous for its food as it is for its natural beauty. Preston’s position also makes for an easy commute to its two larger neighbours, Manchester and Liverpool, in addition to easy access by motorway from five different directions.
