Welcome Inside
The inviting entrance hallway leads to all living spaces, the bedroom, and the large bathroom, creating a seamless flow throughout the apartment. There are also two storage cupboards in the hall, handy for stowing coats/shoes.
The main living area is designed with flexibility and comfort at its heart. Offering generous proportions, there is ample room to accommodate lounge furniture alongside a small dining area. The current owners have arranged several armchairs around a television, yet the space can easily be reconfigured to suit your personal taste and lifestyle. One of the true highlights of this area is the private balcony, providing tranquil views over the landscaped gardens.
From the lounge diner, elegant French-style double doors open directly into the kitchen, creating a sense of openness and connectivity.
The kitchen is thoughtfully appointed, featuring a full suite of integrated appliances including a fridge-freezer and electric hob with overhead extractor. Its neutral design combines attractive beech-effect cabinetry with contrasting granite style worktops, while a well-placed window above the sink floods the space with natural light.
The balcony is a standout feature of this home, providing a serene outlook over tree-lined gardens. With ample room for a bistro set, it is the ideal spot for alfresco dining or simply enjoying the outdoors. An overhead electric awning ensures year-round use, providing welcome shade from the summer sun or shelter from a light shower.
The bedroom is equally impressive, generously proportioned and filled with natural light. It comfortably accommodates a large double bed with additional freestanding furniture. A wall of mirrored sliding wardrobes provides excellent storage, ensuring both practicality and style.
The bathroom is a versatile and well-considered space, designed with both comfort and functionality in mind. Its layout allows room for bathing aids if required, while offering modern fitted amenities including a large bathtub, a sleek vanity unit with WC, and a separate walk-in electric shower complete with wall-mounted seating. Grey tiled walls and waterproof vinyl flooring make the room both stylish and easy to maintain.

These include comfortable lounges and a restaurant-style dining area, ideal for socialising with fellow residents.
