A fantastic, two bedroom, two bathroom apartment with a balcony, located on the fifth floor of this popular, stylish and environmentally sustainable building.

Location - Phoenix Square is perfectly positioned in the heart of Leicester's vibrant cultural quarter, with Curve Theatre, the professional quarters, trendy bars and restaurants, fantastic shopping facilities and the mainline railway station with access to London St Pancras, just a few minutes' walk away.

The Building - Phoenix Square is a truly unique building with three entrances and two lifts, fusing together an independent arts cinema (recently refurbished and now having four screens), individually designed homes, office studios, creative workspaces and a new terrace café (not late night opening). The apartments were designed by award-winning Architects Marsh Grochowski and built with materials including wood from sustainable sources and energy efficient solar hot water systems.

Accommodation - The building is entered via a communal entrance hall housing the letter boxes, stairs and lift to other floors. A private hallway with engineered oak flooring and inset ceiling spotlights leads into the apartment and houses a camera intercom system, an airing cupboard providing storage space and plumbing for an automatic washing machine. The open plan sitting/dining room/kitchen boasts an excellent range of high specification eye and base level units and drawers, ample preparation surfaces, a stainless steel one and a half bowl sink and drainer unit with mixer tap over, integrated appliances including a fridge, freezer, CDA dishwasher, CDA black and stainless steel oven and microwave and an electric hob with concealed extractor unit above, engineered oak flooring throughout and a double glazed sliding door leading onto the south-facing balcony, affording 180 degree city views.

The master bedroom has a double glazed window to the rear elevation overlooking the former Leicester Mercury Building and an en-suite shower room providing a corner shower cubicle, a Duravit wall hung wash hand basin with mixer tap, a large mirror and electric shaver point, an enclosed WC with shelf and cupboard over, inset ceiling spotlights, chrome heated towel rail and tiled flooring.

Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
    Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
