Why buy this home?

This lovely apartment has been well cared for, with upgraded finishes that give it a quality feel. From the cottage-style doors to the Amtico flooring that leads into the open-plan living space, it’s a welcoming home with room to relax, work and have friends over.

The hallway has useful storage thanks to a recess and a double built-in cupboard, helping keep coats, shoes and everyday essentials tucked away. The second bedroom works well as a double room, with space for a wardrobe, or could suit anyone needing a home office that can also accommodate guests.

Opposite is the main bathroom, with tiling around the bath, an overhead shower and half-height tiling to the remaining walls. A large window, white tiles and neutral décor keep the room feeling fresh and bright.

The open-plan kitchen and living area is the heart of the apartment. French doors and two further windows give this top-floor space an airy feel, with room for a generous sofa and a dining table. Whether you’re settling down for the evening or inviting friends over for dinner, there’s space to enjoy both.

The kitchen keeps everything within easy reach, with an eye-level oven, gas hob and integrated dishwasher, washer/dryer and fridge/freezer.

At the opposite end of the apartment, the main bedroom has a little more privacy, particularly useful if you’re sharing with a friend or have guests staying. There’s plenty of room for wardrobes and bedside tables, alongside its own ensuite with a double shower cubicle and a window.

Allocated parking for one car completes the apartment, with communal parking also available.
