Step Inside


The apartment is accessed via a communal entrance.

Positioned at the front of the property, the lounge is a bright and characterful reception room, enjoying two front-facing windows that allow natural light to flood the space. Original coving enhances the period charm, while a feature fireplace creates an attractive focal point. There is ample space for both living and dining furniture, making this a versatile and inviting room for relaxing or entertaining.

The kitchen is fitted with a range of wall and base units, offering good storage and preparation space. There is room for a freestanding fridge, washing machine and cooker with gas hob, alongside additional built-in storage. A rear-facing window provides natural light and ventilation.

Both bedrooms are well-proportioned doubles and continue the character theme of the apartment. Bedroom one is a generous double with built-in storage and a feature fireplace, creating a warm and comfortable sleeping space. Bedroom two, also a double, enjoys a rear aspect and again benefits from a fireplace and additional storage, making it ideal as a guest room, home office or second bedroom. One bedroom also includes a fantastic loft space that could be converted STPP

The bathroom is fitted with a corner shower enclosure, wash hand basin and WC, complemented by partially tiled walls and a rear-facing window. The layout is practical and well suited to modern living while remaining in keeping with the character of the home.
