Entrance

Albert Court is accessed securely from Market Street via a gated entrance with key code access for both residents and vehicles. Once inside, a private residents' car park provides allocated parking for the flat. From the car park, stairs and a lift serve all floors of the building. The flat is positioned on the third floor, at the end of an open walkway that leads directly to the property's private entrance. Entry to the flat is through a double-glazed front door which opens into a welcoming entrance hallway. The hallway is carpeted and features a central heating radiator, a wall-mounted consumer unit, and a telephone intercom system for secure visitor access.

Bathroom

Accessed from the hallway, the bathroom is fitted with a modern three-piece suite comprising of a panelled bath with a mains-fed shower over. This is complemented by a glass screen and fully tiled wall surround with an integrated tiled shelf. A low-level WC and pedestal wash basin are positioned beneath an obscured double-glazed window with a deep window sill, which provides natural light while maintaining privacy. The bathroom also benefits from a tiled splashback, a wall-mounted heated towel rail, and ceiling spotlights, offering both practicality and contemporary style.

Kitchen/lounge/diner

This well-presented open-plan kitchen, dining, and lounge area offers a spacious and versatile living environment. The kitchen is fitted with off-white wall and base units, complemented by roll-edge work surfaces and metro-tiled splashbacks. A composite one and a half bowl sink with drainer, while integrated appliances include a built-in oven and gas hob with extractor hood above. There is space and plumbing for a washing machine, along with room to accommodate a freestanding fridge/freezer. Ceiling spotlights add a modern touch to the kitchen area. The adjoining lounge and dining space is generously proportioned and features a large double-glazed window offering an open outlook. A central heating radiator and TV point complete this comfortable and functional living area.

Bedroom one

Originally intended as the primary bedroom, this spacious room is presently being used as an additional lounge, demonstrating its versatility. Well-sized to accommodate a double bed and further furniture, it benefits from a front-facing double-glazed window that offers an open and pleasant outlook. A central heating radiator ensures comfort, making it an ideal principal bedroom or flexible living space.

Bedroom two

Currently utilised as the principal bedroom, this generously sized second bedroom offers a peaceful and private outlook. A double-glazed window provides natural light and a pleasant view of the adjacent rock face, made more private by the flat’s end-of-building position, with no neighbouring foot traffic passing the walkway. The room includes a central heating radiator and a built-in cupboard housing the property's gas boiler, while still allowing ample space for freestanding furniture.

OUTSIDE

Thanks to its desirable end-of-building position, the property enjoys a more secluded setting. The walkway leading to the flat, while technically communal, is not used by other residents and has been utilised by the current owners as an outdoor seating area, a pleasant spot to unwind on warm evenings while taking in the outlook over the rock face. A dedicated parking space is included and located within a secure, gated residents' car park, accessible via key entry from Market Street, providing both convenience and peace of mind.
