2 bedroom flat to rent

Arranged across the raised ground floor of a period villa, this bright, spacious apartment places form with function. A voluminous reception room employs an open-plan layout to incorporate a dining space.

A south-facing bay window traces the arc of the sun to draw in natural light, illuminating considered design features. Elegant cornicing frames the high ceiling while a dark feature fireplace with a contrasting white surround grounds the space. Through double doors, a modern kitchen enjoys integrated appliances and understated cabinetry.

The principal bedroom suite is a calming, pared-back hideaway with a bank of fitted wardrobes and a generous sash window. Its en suite bathroom features chrome fittings and a walk-in rainfall shower. One further bedroom pairs calming tones with integrated storage and a west-facing window. This room is served by a family bathroom with a bathtub and oversized terracotta wall tiles.
