must have lower standards in Preston :cool:

A penthouse is the top floor apartment.

Even Preston has top floors on it's apartments.;)

Yeah,
Penthouse apartment = top floor flat

Years ago you couldn't give away the top floor flat.

lol loving the view over preston, in amongst the 'grey' bits (excluding the sky of course) you get some nice light industrial areas and in the foreground the car park for the other 500 people who live there in identical hutches.

Yes, quite rare for a city to have other edifices on view.

Actually, on the 70k one I can see quite a lot of green. reminds me of the village of London.

The third one is ideal for a lap dancer.

Flat 3 has last years price of £120K and that shows a price reduction of only 12.5%.
Would that be typical for Preston. I ask although I have no idea where Preston is, but am still interested in the market.

Penthouses are usually bigger, better, nicer flats/apartments

quite a few will also have some outside space, eg a roof terrace

Those are cheap prices. Must be miles away from amenities- i.e. Greggs. Those northerners love their pies.

I see signs for Preston on the motorway, a bit before the junction that exits at Blackpool, if that helps.

A bit OT but since when did flats become apartments?

I just presumed an apartment was an American word for a flat
