Modern apartments, impressive facilities and amazing onsite staff. Special mention to Kelvin for conducting a detailed virtual tour while I was abroad, prompt communication throughout the application process and getting keys to me within days of arrival as promised. Also to Sami for ensuring a smooth move in. Great location on High St near shops, cafes/bars/restaurants, public transport and with major supermarkets across the road. Highly recommended.

I recently moved into WeAreLiving Preston and I couldn’t be happier with the experience! From my very first enquiry, the staff were incredibly friendly, welcoming and helpful and they answered every question I had and made the whole process feel completely stress-free. The journey from enquiry through to move-in day was seamless. Everything was communicated clearly and on time, and it honestly couldn’t have gone more smoothly. I’m so excited to be part of this community, I have my first event this week, Pinot & Pizza, and I cannot wait! If the community vibe is anything like the team who runs this place, it’s going to be amazing. Highly recommend WeAreLiving Preston to anyone looking for their next home! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

This building and the apartments were supposed to be ready in March, and April, and May. The date for moving in was pushed multiple times. The communication about this was poor. And the rent they were asking for was very high, even for a new building. It doesn’t seem to be as tenant friendly as they make it out to be. All in all disappointing, considering how they presented the space upon inspection.
