Description

This spacious and light-filled two-bedroom fourth floor apartment effortlessly reflects contemporary living within the classic charm of a World Heritage City. Benefiting from dedicated underground parking, secure bike storage and lift access to all floors, the apartment is very energy efficient and is also fitted with underfloor heating throughout.

On entering, you are welcomed by a generous hallway which provides access to the rest of the apartment, as well as having 2 useful large utility cupboards, one of which houses a fitted washing machine/dryer.

The focal point of the apartment, and which gives it its “Wow” factor, is the large and elegant sitting room/dining area/kitchen which is flooded with natural light from floor to ceiling windows. Designed to fit in discreetly within the overall room’s open plan L shape, the kitchen is both part of the living area but yet is also set back to allow for an element of separation. It is fully fitted with integrated oven and microwave, ceramic hob, hood, dishwasher, fridge-freezer and wine cooler which are complemented by sleek cabinets.

The main living room is large enough to include both a spacious lounge and a dining area, both of which enjoy the fabulous views across the city. French doors lead out from the living area onto an extensive wrap round decked balcony, which allows for outside dining and relaxation.

The generous master bedroom holds the same views and benefits from a further set of French doors leading out onto the balcony. There is also a very large built-in wardrobe and en-suite shower room. The ensuite comprises a WC and walkin shower as well as a large heated towel rail.

Adjacent is the second double bedroom which also has outstanding views and a fitted double wardrobe.

The good -sized family bathroom comprises a WC and bath with overhead shower, as well as a fitted heated towel rail.

Externally, you have access to both gated private gardens with scented planting and a children’s play area, and the communal Riverside Elizabeth Park, designed with varied seasonal planting and including numerous park benches and fitness equipment. Adjacent to the Park are two very popular cafes which offer inside and outside seating.
