Modern 1-Bedroom Flat with Private Terrace in Prime Location

Presented in immaculate condition throughout, this modern ground-floor flat stands out for its stylish finishes and abundant natural light. Tucked away in a peaceful cul-de-sac, the property features a private covered terrace and enjoys a prime location surrounded by lush parks within short walking distance. Offering the ideal balance of suburban tranquility, vibrant community spirit, and excellent urban connectivity, it is a perfect match for first-time buyers, professionals, pet lovers, and anyone who enjoys an active, outdoor lifestyle.

Bright & Spacious Reception Room with Direct Terrace Access

Forming the heart of the home, this light-filled reception space seamlessly combines living, dining, and kitchen areas into one fluid, sociable layout. Full-height glass patio doors draw in abundant natural daylight while providing direct access to the private covered terrace.

Warm wood-effect flooring flows continuously throughout the space, visually uniting the layout while allowing distinct functional zones to naturally unfold. The expansive main lounge easily accommodates a large sofa setup, media console, and freestanding furniture without feeling crowded. A dedicated dining area transitions effortlessly between everyday meals and entertaining guests, linking directly to the open kitchen to preserve a bright, cohesive, and interactive atmosphere.

Charming & Private Outdoor Terrace for Sunlit Relaxation

Extending the main living area outdoors, this private ground-floor terrace offers a practical, low-maintenance urban retreat. Direct access through full-height glass patio doors creates a seamless indoor-outdoor transition and brings natural light into the property.

Completely covered overhead the fully paved area provides year-round shelter for outdoor dining or relaxing. Natural bamboo screening and metal fencing define the boundary to ensure privacy and security, while the layout offers plenty of space for potted plants, container gardening, and creating your own personal green oasis.

Generous Interior Storage & Flexible Options

The property benefits from a dedicated hallway storage cupboard as well as ample room throughout the bedroom and living area for freestanding wardrobes and storage solutions. Conveniently, the storage cupboard shares a wall with the kitchen, offering flexible access to plumbing should you wish to relocate the washer/dryer out of the kitchen to increase cupboard space, or install a dishwasher.

Sleek & U-Shaped Kitchen Designed for Seamless Socializing

Thoughtfully designed to optimise the lifestyle of a modern flat, this U-shaped kitchen makes the most of every square metre without encroaching on the living area. Its layout is centred around the classic “work triangle”, positioning the integrated fridge-freezer, cooking area with oven, and stainless-steel sink within easy reach for a smooth and efficient cooking experience.

It also benefits from:

Generous Worktop Space: Provides an extensive, continuous preparation area for cooking and accommodating small appliances.
Optimised Storage: Makes excellent use of vertical space and continuous cabinetry to keep everything organised and clutter-free.
Open-Plan & Social Design: Connects directly with the living area, creating a seamless flow and allowing you to socialise while cooking without compromising valuable circulation space.

The space remains bright, spacious and uncluttered, creating a strong visual and social connection with the open-plan living and dining area. This allows you to cook and interact naturally with family or guests while maintaining generous, practical circulation space.

Featuring high-gloss, handleless white cabinetry paired with dark worktops, the kitchen offers an impressive amount of preparation space and storage. It is fully equipped with an integrated oven, electric hob, extractor hood, integrated fridge-freezer and stainless-steel sink.

Decorative wooden shelving introduces warmth and provides easily accessible storage, while under-cabinet lighting enhances both functionality and ambience. The low-maintenance ceramic flooring completes a sleek, practical and impeccably finished kitchen.

Tranquil & Spacious Double Bedroom with Direct En-Suite Access

Designed as a serene sanctuary, this generous double bedroom is flooded with natural light through a large double glass window. The room easily accommodates a double or king-sized bed with an upholstered headboard, flanked by matching wooden bedside tables. Its generous footprint offers ample versatility for large storage pieces, such as a tall wooden wardrobe and a wide chest of drawers, without compromising on floor space or open flow. Plush neutral carpeting adds a touch of everyday luxury underfoot, while the direct door to the private en-suite bathroom provides ultimate convenience and privacy.

En-suite Bathroom with Bespoke Open Shelving

This en-suite full bathroom combines warm neutral floor-to-ceiling tiling around the bath with a bold charcoal accent wall. The space features a full-sized bath, a pedestal sink topped with a contemporary round mirror, and a modern WC.

A standout highlight is the vertical arrangement of three bespoke wooden floating shelves: by making full use of vertical wall height rather than floor footprint, they maximise space while keeping everyday essentials beautifully organised and effortlessly accessible. This open-concept display creates a clean, serene environment where fluffy towels and luxury toiletries serve as decorative accents.
