The suite includes a double walk-in shower equipped with a mains shower, a vanity unit with integrated wash basin and storage below, a wall-mounted mirrored cabinet, and a WC. A heated towel rail is mounted to the wall, while an obscured double glazed window allows natural light and privacy.

A stainless steel sink with drainer is positioned beneath a front-aspect double-glazed window. Integrated appliances include a dishwasher, washing machine, oven, and four-ring induction hob with contemporary extractor hood above. Additional features include a pull-out pantry cupboard and space for a freestanding fridge/freezer, while the gas boiler is discreetly housed within matching cabinetry. The kitchen floor is tiled for durability and ease of maintenance.

Living room/diner

The living room offers a spacious and well-maintained area, enhanced by a nearly full-height double-glazed window overlooking both the apartment’s garden and the communal gardens beyond. A double-glazed door provides direct access to the garden room. The room is laid with carpet and features a central heating radiator, while a feature fireplace creates a focal point in the space.

Bedroom one

Situated to the rear of the apartment, the principal bedroom is a generous double. A double-glazed window offers pleasant views across the communal gardens. The room benefits from a built-in wardrobe equipped with a hanging rail and shelving, while a central heating radiator completes the space.

Bedroom two

The second bedroom, positioned at the front of the property, is also a double, though slightly smaller. It features a double-glazed window with a radiator beneath. A built-in wardrobe offers hanging and shelving storage, providing practical organisation.

Garden room & outside

An excellent addition to the apartment, the garden room provides flexible space suitable for additional white goods, storage, or leisure use. It is fitted with a sliding patio double glazed door that opens directly onto its own patio, ideal for outdoor seating. Adjacent to the patio is the apartment's lawn area laid with artificial grass. Beyond the private outdoor space lie the meticulously maintained communal gardens, which feature a central lawn area highlighted by a mature Magnolia tree. Surrounding borders are thoughtfully planted with a diverse mix of mature shrubs, low-maintenance evergreens, and seasonal flowering plants, offering year-round visual appeal.
