Greenacres is a development of two modern apartment blocks set in beautifully kept grounds opposite Preston Park, which is a large outdoor space with a children’s playground, cafés, tennis courts, and a velodrome. The flat is within walking distance of both London Road station (approximately 15 minutes) and Preston Park station (approximately 20 minutes), with good rail connections to London. Local bus routes, schools, and shops are also close by. St. Augustine's Arts & Events Centre is just around the corner, where there are arts events and a programme of weekly yoga classes.
Located on the sixth floor of Greenacres, this two-bedroom flat has uninterrupted views over Preston Park. Greenacres includes lift access, a secure entry system, communal heating, inclusive water rates, an on-site caretaker, a neatly presented entrance foyer, and landscaped communal grounds.
The apartment itself includes two double bedrooms, a dual-aspect living and dining room, a separate kitchen, a bathroom, and a separate WC. A private balcony has spectacular views of the park and beyond. The apartment also has a garage.
The entrance area has two large built-in storage cupboards with plenty of space for coats, shoes, and other household items. To the left, the main bedroom features bespoke built-in wardrobes along one wall and above the bed, maximising storage. The large window has fantastic park views. The second double bedroom, adjacent to the main bedroom, has similar views and two built-in wardrobes positioned on opposite walls.
Across the hall, the separate WC is finished with marble-effect wall panels, a wall-mounted toilet, and a matching handbasin. The adjacent bathroom is fully tiled and includes a second WC, a basin, and a generous walk-in shower with thermostatic controls.
Further along the hallway is an airing cupboard and, at the far end, a modern kitchen. Cabinet doors have brass bar handles and T-bar knobs, which add character to the room. Worktops are black granite-effect laminate, and appliances include an electric hob, a Bosch double oven with grill, and space for a full-height fridge-freezer and washing machine. The sink is positioned beneath the window, and a small breakfast bar has space for two. Stone-effect tiles add detail around the window and above the worktops.
The living and dining room is bright and spacious, with large double-glazed windows on two sides. A glazed door opens onto the balcony, with further elevated views over the park. The room comfortably accommodates both lounge seating and a dining area.
What the owner says:
“The apartment has wonderful views looking out across Preston Park and beyond, even at night the view is great. We have really enjoyed our time living here, the neighbours have been welcoming and there's a nice community feel within the block. It’s been a godsend knowing you can always get a parking spot and the garage is very handy for storage. The heating is included in the maintenance charge and the communal areas and gardens are always well maintained. There's good recycling onsite and Kevin the caretaker is on hand for any other small jobs."
