The Property - This spacious modern apartment is located of the top floor of a purpose-built three-storey block, forming part of the complex built in the grounds of Sollershott Hall, one of the most notable early Garden City buildings. It provides a large reception room with sitting and dining areas and balcony, kitchen, two double bedrooms and a bathroom.
