Preston Mansions is an exclusive apartment complex looking out over the green environs of Preston Park. Built in 2006, it remains one of the most prestigious in the area with a contemporary and luxurious finish. This two-bedroom, two-bathroom property resides on the second floor with a westerly aspect looking out over Preston Park’s Rose Garden from its balcony. The main reception is particularly spacious with an open plan kitchen, ideal for entertaining, and both bedrooms are double, suitable for professional sharers or a family unit.

The building is beautifully maintained, expertly managed with 24hr CCTV and a secure underground parking space, so it could be the perfect ‘lock-up-and leave’ for those who travel on a regular basis. Transport links are excellent, with two commuter stations within walking distance, and the local schools, both state and private, come highly acclaimed, so this will also appeal to families, professionals and investors alike.

Why you’ll like it:
This prestigious development of contemporary apartments looking out over Preston Park is known for its exclusivity and style, standing out amongst historic neighbours with its curved façade adorned with glass balconies; akin to a modern sea liner facing south towards the coast. You enter through iron gates, decorated with sweet bird motifs, via a video entry system, then through the communal hallway which feels much like a five-star hotel with gleaming floors, designer artwork and gentle lighting. You take the lift to the second floor where the apartments are clearly numbered.

Once inside, you are welcomed into a spacious hallway with soft cream carpet underfoot and fresh white walls. It is immaculately presented having been beautifully maintained by the current owners. You are warmed by the underfloor heating which runs throughout the apartment and is zoned, but being a modern and well insulated building, it is rarely needed.

The main event in this apartment is the magnificent open plan living room and kitchen which is a delightful space for sophisticated entertaining. There are defined areas for comfortable seating and formal dining, and while the kitchen is open to the room, it is recessed making it feel separate whilst retaining the social aspect of open plan living. The westerly wall has three picture windows to bring in natural light while the views are green and leafy with the urban landscape of the city rising up behind them.

The kitchen area has high quality, wood laminate units topped with granite. Into these, the fridge, freezer, microwave, dishwasher, fan oven and induction hob are all seamlessly integrated, so you can move straight in with relative ease.

Returning to the hall, bedroom two is to the right, being a wonderful size with space for a king size bed and several pieces of bedroom furniture without compromising on floor space. This is maximised by built-in wardrobes and the decoration is immaculate in shades of cream to suit all styles of furnishing. This room has easy access to the main bathroom across the hall which has a wood panelled bath with a shower over it and large-scale wall and floor tiles for a chic and streamlined finish.

The principal bedroom is exceptionally spacious with a wall of glossy wardrobes with ample space for clothes and shoe storage for two. It shares the same sunny outlook and park views as the other rooms, plus has access to the balcony which enjoys the last of the summer sunshine. Throughout the warmer seasons, you can enjoy the sporting and music events held in the park from the comfort of your own home. In addition, this room’s en suite is the epitome of luxury with a generous walk-in rainfall shower to revive you in the morning before work.

Agent’s thoughts:
These apartments were cutting edge when they were built in 2006, and they have stood the test of time to remain luxurious and high-end in 2025. You get the best of both worlds with the city, stations and shops nearby, while being surrounded by peace and greenery – just perfect. In addition, water rates, a gardener and a cleaner for the communal ways are included in the maintenance fee.

Owner’s thoughts:
‘This apartment has been a successful rental property for me as it has always been a popular choice for tenants as you cannot beat the location. It is so peaceful with the park on your doorstep, yet the city, the beach, good schools and the station are just a stroll away.’

This is a stunning apartment in a popular location which is well served for shops, parks and schools. There are plenty of local green spaces, and great transport links, but you are also only a short walk from everything this fashionable coastal city has to offer. The A23/A27 and two commuter stations are also within easy reach, for those requiring fast links to the universities, airports or London on a daily or weekly basis.
