Vantage Point

Development Overview

Vantage Point is a completed, new build apartment development by RW Invest, situated on Standishgate in Central Wigan, Greater Manchester (postcode WN1 1UE). The building primarily offers a collection of high-specification residential units, including Deluxe Studio Apartments, 1 Bedroom Apartments, and 1 Bed Superior Apartments. Current market listings indicate prices for the new build homes range from approximately £99,950 to £159,950, depending on the unit type and floor. The project is strategically located within an area undergoing significant regeneration, including the notable £135 million redevelopment of the nearby Galleries Shopping Centre.

Property Details

All available units are Studio or one-bedroom apartments, designed with modern, professional tenants and owner-occupiers in mind. The specifications include high-end interior finishes such as premium-quality flooring, expansive windows for natural light, and fully fitted kitchens. The development provides desirable on-site amenities for residents, most notably a 24-Hour Gym. Vantage Point is described as a completed and tenanted development, meaning property purchasers can acquire a ready-to-use residence immediately, without waiting for construction completion. For full detailed specifications, prospective buyers should contact the developer directly.

Location and Connectivity

Vantage Point benefits from exceptional connectivity in Wigan town centre. The location places residents within walking distance of both of the town’s main railway stations: Wigan Wallgate is located approximately 0.2 miles away, and Wigan North Western is 0.3 miles away. This direct access facilitates rapid commuter connections across the North West. Express train services offer a fastest journey time of approximately 26 minutes to Manchester city centre and a travel time of 32 to 48 minutes to Liverpool Lime Street.

Local amenities are comprehensive and easily accessible. The development is situated on Standishgate, close to the main shopping street. Dining options nearby include the award-winning Wheel Restaurant at the Wigan & Leigh College Parsons Walk Campus, Twentymans artisan pizzeria on Bradshawgate, and Albert's Standish. For residents with educational needs, local primary schools include St Mary and St John Catholic Primary School (approx. 0.9 miles away), while nearby secondary options include St Edmund Arrowsmith Catholic High School (rated ‘Good’ by Ofsted) and Golborne High School (rated ‘Outstanding’ by Ofsted).

Practical Information

The development is a finished new build project by RW Invest, a developer established in 2004 with a portfolio exceeding £1 billion and over 121 completed projects across the North West. RW Invest maintains a strong track record, supported by a 4.7/5 ‘Excellent’ rating on Trustpilot from over a thousand customer reviews. This development is often presented as an attractive buy-to-let opportunity due to Wigan's reported high rental yields, but it offers equally practical living for owner-occupiers seeking a central, low-maintenance home. Due to the 'Completed and Tenanted' status, all viewing arrangements and detailed unit-specific information, including service charges and ground rent (if applicable), must be obtained directly from the developer, RW Invest.
