Inside

Overlooking the grand road below, the living room is the real heart of this two bedroom flat. A large, beautiful sash window creates an eye-catching focal point and sits proudly amongst a host of period features including ornate window frame and ceiling cornices. The warm tones of the wood floor add an inviting feel and wide chimney breast alcoves offer ample shelving space.

The tall ceilings with period cornicing continue in the kitchen where beech Shaker-style cabinets sit beneath a brightly coloured, tiled splashback. Stainless steel integrated appliances add a contemporary feel while aqua blue walls inject a splash of colour.

A wall of floor to ceiling, fitted wardrobes and cupboards offers ample storage space in the master bedroom. Neutrally presented with yet more white walls and period detailing, the room is well-proportioned for additional freestanding furniture and beautifully lit from a tall sash window.

Offering ideal dual-space potential, a second bedroom is generously-sized and provides further recessed wardrobe space.

An internal bathroom comes complete with a tiled, walk-in shower and separate full-size bath.
