There's plenty of space for a full dining setup, making it perfect for entertaining. The living area provides a calm, minimalist retreat with room for a large sofa and media wall setup.

Both bedrooms are peaceful, light-filled spaces with well-placed windows and room for double beds and fitted wardrobes. The plush twist pile wool mix carpets underfoot bring warmth and texture to the space.

The bathroom is finished to an exceptional standard, with Claybrook travertine and terrazzo-inspired tiles, a white ash veneer vanity, and satin gunmetal fixtures. A full-size bath with overhead shower and quartz countertops adds to the spa-like feel.
