Once in the apartment door there is an entrance lobby with PIR light detector, a further door then gives access into the hallway where doors can be found for all 4 bedrooms. Bedroom one comes with a luxury en-suite shower room. in addition is a high quality bathroom servicing the other 3 bedrooms.

Stairs lead up to the heart of this property, being a huge open plan triple aspect living area where there is access out to a private balcony.
