Retaining many of its stunning original Edwardian features, Herrison House seamlessly combines modern living with original architecture which continues into the apartment, with large sash windows and high ceilings throughout.
On entering the property, you are greeted by a spacious entrance hallway providing access to the principal rooms.

The fitted kitchen is well appointed with a range of floor and wall mounted units, integrated oven and sink with drainer as well as space and drainage for additional white goods.
The master bedroom is a well-proportioned double room, with the added benefit of a double built-in wardrobe and two large sash windows overlooking the communal lawns and allowing in abundance of natural light. Completing the stylish and characterful apartment is a modern family bathroom comprising bath with shower over, WC and pedestal sink unit and finished with contemporary white tiling.
