And now, thanks to the launch of its new virtual viewings platform, furry friends can look around each Mansion House apartment from the comfort of their current home, with guided tours for owners and pets alike.

The pet-friendly approach comes after the House by Urban Splash team gaged the opinion of prospective Mansion House customers to ascertain exactly what they wanted from the New Islington neighbourhood; sales manager Toby Brown explained: “We undertook some research back in January and it became evident that the demographic of New Islington buyers really wanted their pets with them. There’s a lot of green space, waterside spaces and pet-friendly amenities, so we decided we wanted to be a part of that too.

“And now, the current implications and lockdown restrictions have compounded how important companionship is, so we’re looking forward to welcoming residents – both human and furry – when Mansion House completes.”

Additionally, house hunters can now bring their pets with them to view Mansion House apartments and get their opinion via a new, virtual viewing platform, allowing customers and their pets a chance to look around the homes without leaving their current space.

“It’s a really cool piece of software,” Toby continues. “The viewings show every facet of Mansion House; the high ceilings, dual aspect and oversized windows and balconies – all of which will give customers uninterrupted views across New Islington Marina and Cotton Field park.

“Mansion House - and New Islington itself – is all about community, ideal for those wanting to put down roots and purchase their very own home in Manchester, while enjoying a fantastic space and views over the city’s newest and coolest neighbourhood. It was important that we ensured each customer can bring their whole family along.”

Designed by award-winning architects Shedkm and built using sustainable materials and innovative construction techniques, Mansion House is a very modern offering within an age-old concept; small groups of apartments with one shared entrance enable residents to enjoy their own space without feeling secluded.
