You’ll immediately notice the exquisite Victorian period features that have been beautifully maintained, adding to the charm and character of the space. The apartment is briefly comprised of an open plan kitchen/diner living area, useful separate utility room, garden room leading to an East facing garden and bedroom with in build storage and additional mezzanine next to a large primary bedroom with dressing room and shower ensuite.

To the side of the entrance is a cleverly organised cloakroom perfect for keeping shoes and coats out the way. As you enter the main living space a sense of calm overflows with its delicate sage and cream decoration and clever use of uplighting that highlights the grand Victorian acanthus moulded cornicing and ceiling rose above. Plenty of natural light through the large bay windows in the open plan living kitchen diner area.

The lounge feels cozy, with a wood burner set in the traditional fireplace. Statement oak flooring connects the lounge and the kitchen. The ceiling height windows in the kitchen at the tail end looks over the garden, making the apartment feel connected to the outside.

The bespoke handmade kitchen features ecofriendly, tough, mottled composite glass resilica (R) worktops complimenting the chic blacksmith made iron handled wooden cabinetry. A second beautiful fireplace sits in the dining area, with a statement fireplace with William Morris style leaf tiling of the fire surround.

A separate utility room has integral freezer, dishwasher, washing machine and a sink, allowing social areas to be kept clear of day to day household chores. To the side, a walk in larder.

The primary bedroom has an exposed brick fireplace and French doors leading to the garden.
