THE PROPERTY

The property offers upwards of 440 sq ft and is split over 2 floors like a house, direct access to private terrace as well as a walk-in wardrobe with skylight off the bedroom.

It's pertinent to note there are few 1-bedroom period, split level flats with private outside space and a walk win wardrobe available locally which offer all these features. We think buyers will recognise and appreciate this when searching properties.

The property is well located for great social life, recreation (green spaces included) transport and highly acclaimed schools which this description will offer further details on.

Buyers will not fully appreciate the scale of the property and how feature rich the property is unless they view in person. However, we highly recommend buyers view our HD VIDEO walk through and our 360 DEGREE VIRTUAL TOUR. Along with the images and floor plan, these will offer great insight prior to viewing.
