Property Description
Located on the first floor with lift access, the apartment features one comfortable bedroom with a king-sized bed and one modern bathroom with a shower over the bath.

The bedroom has a calm and inviting feel, with soft neutral carpeting, crisp white bedding, a warm timber headboard and colourful artwork adding character to the space.

Throughout the apartment, the décor strikes a lovely balance between modern simplicity and relaxed character. Natural finishes and fresh neutral tones create a bright backdrop, while colourful artwork, patterned textiles and personal decorative touches give the home warmth and personality without feeling overly formal.
