Description

12 Black Friars is a duplex apartment occupying the top two floors of a beautiful period townhouse set on a quiet residential street in the heart of the city.

Since purchasing the current owners have carried out a comprehensive scheme of refurbishment to include installation of a new kitchen, new bathroom, replacement flooring, new carpets, plantation shutters and a new boiler. The property is beautifully presented and the project has been executed with real skill and finesse.

On the first floor is an attractive dining room with LVT flooring, hearth with decorative stove (not in use) and access through to the kitchen to one side and the sitting room to the other. Stairs lead up to the second floor from the dining room. The kitchen is well equipped with a range of wall and base units, integrated appliances to include fridge/freezer, dishwasher, hob/oven and extractor fan. To the rear of the kitchen is a door leading out to the private terrace which has been attractively tiled to create a Mediterranean feel and this is a lovely spot to enjoy a morning coffee or evening glass of wine. There is plenty of space for outdoor furniture.

Leading off the dining room is the sitting room which is a really cosy space overlooking Black Friars. This room has a feature gas fire and a series of book shelves either side of the hearth.
On the second floor is a spacious principal bedroom with built-in storage and a guest bedroom. The stylish bathroom has been really well thought out with an attractive free standing bath, separate shower, wc, sink and backlit mirror.

There is a parking space to the rear of the property.

Given the excellent location, as well as being a beautiful place to live, the property also has potential to be run as a holiday let.
