THE MAP
The King Street Collection is perfectly placed for residents who want to make the most of living in Manchester city centre. Exciting restaurants, high-end shops, bustling bars and convenient transport links are all just minutes away. In addition, cultural hotspots including Manchester Art Gallery, the Royal Exchange Theatre and Central Library are only a short walk away. What’s more, the local area is also one of the most beautiful in Manchester. The nearby Boardman’s Entry connects to South King Street, an area full of hidden gems and curiosities. To the south east lies Albert Square, home to Manchester Town Hall, and just beyond that is St. Peter’s Square. In the other direction is Deansgate and the John Rylands Library, a neo-gothic masterpiece which acts as the gateway to Spinningfields. To the north you can find the attractive St Anne’s Square, and a little further on from that lie Manchester Cathedral, Selfridges and the iconic Northern Quarter.

MASTERFULLY DESIGNED AND REFINED HOMES S E N S I T I V E LY C R A F T E D S PA C E S F O R L I V I N G Sitting above street level, the four homes in the King Street Collection provide comfort and privacy while maintaining a strong connection to the vibrant city centre. This is an increasingly rare combination in Manchester, making these homes incredibly unique. Each townhouse features a welcoming entrance space, and bedrooms are positioned over two floors, with the master bedrooms enjoying their own exclusive level within each home. Kitchen, dining and living spaces can be found in the upper floors, and are designed as attractive, dynamic open-plan spaces which allow residents’ individuality to come through. The highest quality fixtures, fittings and finishes are used throughout each home in the King Street Collection. A carefully-selected palette and colour scheme creates a characterful, refined luxury feel.
