Property description

Space, character and a private garden section make this one-bedroom apartment stand out. Occupying the first floor of a period property that has been divided into three apartments, the home runs from the front to the rear of the building, giving it a natural sense of flow and separation between living and sleeping areas.

The living room is the real heart of the home. Positioned to the front, this impressive bay-fronted room measures approximately 15’7” x 13’6” and enjoys high ceilings, polished wooden flooring, original cornicing and an ornamental cast iron fireplace. It is the kind of room that immediately feels generous

The kitchen diner sits separately and offers a practical, sociable space for day-to-day living. Finished with glossy grey cabinetry, wood-effect worktops and white metro-style tiling, it has ample storage and preparation space, along with room for a dining table for four. It is easy to imagine this being the natural spot for relaxed breakfasts, midweek dinners or a drink with friends before heading into town.

To the rear of the apartment, the double bedroom is a good size and enjoys a pleasant outlook over the garden. From here, an external staircase leads directly down to the garden area, a feature not often found with a one-bedroom apartment. The property owns the middle section of the garden, which includes a decked area and established planting, creating a useful outdoor space for sitting out, growing plants or simply having somewhere private to enjoy fresh air.

The bathroom is fitted with a three-piece white suite, including a shower over the bath. The apartment also benefits from UPVC double glazing, gas central heating and a lock-up storage cupboard in the basement, ideal for bikes, tools, suitcases or seasonal items.
