COULD FOREGATE STREET BE YOUR NEXT HOME OR INVESTMENT? This is one individual and unique penthouse apartment that is appealing in many ways! First, try finding a view like this, over the spectacular City skyline - usually reserved for those twice the price and at the ideal height.

This fine set of apartments could be described more like a Swiss apartment complex and couldn't be more ideally located with one side being right next to Grosvenor Park. This is the approach you will use to access the underground parking and where there is a secure pedestrian gate that will take you onto The Headlands, the road that separates the complex from the park. Turn immediately right and walk through the footpath, after all of 100 yards and you are on the high Street.

Here you will also find a pleasant walk through the well-kept Grosvenor Park leading to the River Dee where you can relax and enjoy the picturesque setting with river side seating, ice cream, self-hire and cruise boats, the Boat House and the popular Hickory's restaurant.

The other entrance is through the pleasant development, under the arch, around the lawned garden and onto Foregate Street. The high street is a minute away to your left, the railway station is a pleasant walk along City Way in under ten minutes with a variety of eateries, shops and the new Waitrose supermarket.

The communal entrance could rival any up-market hotel or apartment complex and an adjoining room has been set aside for your daily post and newspaper – an omission made by most developers - impressing each and every time you return home. There is an alternative glazed entrance to the opposite side and internally from the secure underground garage.

There is no doubt that this is certainly one of, if not the best kept complex in the City and a possible refurbishment of the communal areas is being talked about after the freehold has been acquired. We think one of the features at 156 Foregate Street are the apartment doors which help to create a more upmarket and homely feel. We think the hallway of the apartment itself will create a warm welcoming each and every time you return home where you will find contemporary timber doors open to the living suite on the right, to bedroom two straight ahead and to the master bedroom and bathroom on the left. There is access to generous loft storage, space for display furniture and an intercom to welcome your guests. There is also a useful store room.

The living suite is certainly a room with a spectacular view of the City skyline and provides the perfect setting for entertaining your guests. The dining area comes first, with plenty of space for a table for four and display furniture of your choice. This room enjoys sun from afternoon till dusk with the lounge area having space for a suite and features a large bay window allowing you to relax and enjoy the City views and amazing sunsets. The kitchen area is well equipped with a matching range of shaker style units and a range of high-quality integrated appliances for your everyday needs including dish washer and microwave oven. Recessed lighting has been set to dimmer, creating a delightful ambience in the evenings.

Returning back to the hall and the master bedroom also enjoys views over the complex and City and features a suite of fitted wardrobes with a matching dressing table and bedside units. Bedroom two further enjoys stunning views and has space for a free standing wardrobe providing useful storage. And last but not least is the bathroom, recently well-appointed with contemporary tiling and a white three-piece suite including a deep panelled jacuzzi bath with an integrated chrome thermostatic shower and screen.

So why not arrange a viewing? We are sure you will be impressed with this exceptional penthouse apartment in this fine complex.
