Why you’ll like it
Attractive on the approach; Park Court is a lovely apartment building to come home to. Gardeners have manicured the grounds and the exterior is quintessential for the period, bearing a linear, symmetrical form giving it an air of grandeur. Steps rise up through the centre to the communal hallways which are well-maintained.

Stepping inside the apartment, it is immediately clear it has been renovated and modernised using stylish neutral tones of dove-grey and calico cream to create a streamlined finish which cannot fail to impress. It also creates a blank canvas to be decorated with quality furnishings and artworks of your choice.

The hallway is wide and welcoming with frosted glass internal windows and doors to bring in plenty of natural light. Within the living room, there is ample space for formal dining and relaxed seating around the fireplace that provides a period focal point complimented with other deco period fixtures. Triple aspect picture windows frame views over the garden and being positioned to the rear of the building ensures it is completely peaceful.

Nearby, the modern kitchen has plenty of storage solutions in cream gloss cabinetry paired with gleaming porcelain floor tiles and wood-effect worktops. Within these, the appliances are seamlessly fitted to include a washing / drying machine, dishwasher, fridge freezer, oven and an induction hob, so you can move straight in with relative ease.

Both bedrooms are substantial doubles with calming views, soothing tones on the walls and double glazing to ensure a warm and restful night’s sleep. The bathroom nearby is equally stylish with large-scale stone porcelain wall and floor tiles around a white bath suite with a power shower over it. A sleek vanity unit provides ample storage for toiletries, below a wall mounted mirror.

Outside, the communal garden is a treat for the senses having been expertly manicured with terraced lawns and fragrant plants. Tall trees are home to an array of wildlife, so birdsong fills the air, making it hard to believe you are so close to the city.
