Local Blackfriars is a gated community comprised of 380 apartments across two striking towers, architecturally blended into a Grade-II-listed former public house that has been repurposed as a gateway entrance.
A public piazza leads to a private internal courtyard, which is south-facing and receives plenty of natural sunlight. Alongside communal terraces, BBQs, and WiFi-enabled breakout areas, this contemplative garden is designed to foster a strong sense of community. A contemporary bistro café – open to both residents and the public during regular business hours – further adds to the vibrant communal feel of the space.
With a range of excellent on-site facilities, such as a cinema room, multi-purpose fitness studios, and a fully equipped gym, Local Blackfriars sets a high precedent for Manchester rental property. Tenants also have access to bike storage, a car park, lifts and free Wi-Fi in common areas. To ensure security, the development deploys CCTV cameras in critical locations and has a controlled access system in place. There is a concierge, parcel collection/storage, on-site management and maintenance services for daily support.

It will be my third investment apartment with RW Invest and I cannot recommend them highly enough. Sean Orrett and Chloe Walker really do go the extra mile. Chloe in particular helped me through a particularly hard time with solicitors and all the paperwork that was involved. Living in a different country and negotiating all the nuances that come with investing, she negotiated with ease and gusto. A big thanks to you both.

Daniel Stewart, has assisted me every step of the way. This is my first property purchase and so took Daniel up on his offer to guide me through every step no matter how small. I felt comforted to have his assistance in documents I needed to both understand and sign. Couldn't be happier with the help and customer care I have received so far.
