Description
This immaculately renovated 685 sqft apartment, nestled on the top floor of the historic and iconic Hill House, was once the home of George Stacey Gibson, known as 'Mr Saffron Walden'. The two-bedroom apartment was refurbished in 2019, combining classic charm with contemporary design to provide an exquisite living experience on Saffron Walden's High Street.
The apartment welcomes you with an open-plan living space bathed in natural light from skylights, affirming a sense of openness rare in top-floor abodes. The modern kitchen, sleek with white cabinetry and integrated appliances, sits adjacent to a cosy dining area, perfect for intimate dinners or casual brunches.
Each of the two bedrooms is a tranquil retreat, with plush carpeting and ample natural light. The master bedroom boasts a sophisticated decor, while the second bedroom, versatile and airy, can serve as a home office or guest room, fulfilling the needs of the modern homeowner.
Elegance continues into the bathrooms where function meets form. One features a walk-in shower with artisanal tiles, offering a spa-like ambience, while the other includes a full-sized bathtub with an overhead shower, encased in a serene, tile-clad decor.
Set in the heart of Saffron Walden, the location is unmatched, with the town's rich history, thriving markets, and eclectic eateries just a stone's throw away. For the discerning buyer seeking a blend of historic allure and modern comfort, this top-floor apartment is more than a home; it's a statement of living well.
