Each flat has been finished to a ‘first fix’ stage including double glazed UPVC windows, plumbing, electrical cables and plasterboard. Some rooms have also been plastered. Kitchens and bathrooms have not been fitted. There are four Baxi Platinum combi-boilers included in the sale, ready for fitting.
