GROUND FLOOR

From the moment you step inside, the apartment conveys a clear sense of quality and high specification throughout. The front entrance opens into a beautifully proportioned open-plan kitchen and living space, designed with both comfort and entertaining in mind.

The sitting area is warm and characterful, centred around an elegant feature fireplace and offering excellent flexibility for a range of furnishings. Throughout the apartment, period details have been carefully preserved, including graceful ceiling coving, which adds depth, charm and a sense of timeless elegance. Natural light fills the interior, enhanced by recently installed double-glazed windows, refined flooring and sleek, contemporary finishes.

The generous and impressive principal bedroom is a calm and indulgent retreat, generously sized to accommodate a full suite of furniture and benefitting from a beautifully finished en-suite shower room with tasteful tiling. A secondary access point to the communal hall provides additional versatility. The second delightful bedroom enjoys the luxury of its own en-suite making the layout ideal for guests or occasional visitors. A range of cleverly integrated storage cupboards and shelving further enhances the apartment’s practicality without compromising its clean, elegant aesthetic.

The apartment is presented to a high specification throughout, with high-quality décor, fittings and furnishings that have been carefully chosen to complement the character of the building while delivering modern comfort. The property has been meticulously maintained, allowing a purchaser to move straight in and enjoy the lifestyle on offer.
