Occupying the top floor of the sought-after The Hastings development, this well-proportioned duplex apartment offers approximately 621 sq. ft. of accommodation with an individual split-level layout that provides far more space and character than many apartments within its price range.

Just off the lounge is a well-appointed fitted kitchen featuring wood-effect cabinetry, generous worktop space and integrated cooking appliances.
A staircase rises to the impressive upper floor where the second bedroom enjoys exposed beams and vaulted ceilings, creating a unique loft-style room full of character. Extensive eaves storage is built into both sides of the room, while an additional loft area accessed from the landing provides exceptional storage and offers exciting future potential, subject to any necessary permissions.
