Why you’ll like it
Steps from the greenery of Preston Park and moments from the café culture of Preston Circus, this loft-style apartment sits within the striking Old Technological College - a landmark Victorian industrial building known for its oversized windows, dramatic ceiling heights and decorative brickwork.
Arranged over the ground floor and a generous mezzanine level, the apartment feels naturally bright and spacious from the moment you step inside. A private entrance leads directly into the open-plan living area, where tall ceilings and a large picture window enhance the sense of space. The gallery-like proportions make this a standout home for anyone who appreciates minimalist, modern interiors.
The open-plan living/dining area flows into a sleek, streamlined kitchen with ample storage and workspace - ideal for entertaining or relaxed everyday cooking. Underfloor heating and pale timber flooring create warmth and cohesion throughout the ground floor. From here, doors lead directly out to a west-facing decked garden, perfect for evening sun, alfresco dining or simple low-maintenance outdoor living. A contemporary WC completes the ground floor.
Upstairs, the mezzanine level overlooks the main living space, enhancing the loft aesthetic. The bedroom area is an excellent size, with room for a large bed and built in storage, and it benefits from an en-suite shower room finished with modern tiling and fittings.
