The flat is reached via a secure entry system and lift service, the front door opening into a hall with storage. The living/dining room is on the right, generously spanning the depth of the home to provide ample floorspace for all occasions, whether socialising, relaxing, or dining. It enjoys neutral décor and a chic accent wall, and has a light-filled ambience thanks to south-facing windows that frame a beautiful hillside view. The kitchen is adjacent behind an open archway. It is fitted with modern cabinets and downlit worksurfaces, which are complemented by slimline splashbacks and plinth lighting. It also includes an integrated oven, ceramic hob, and fridge/freezer. Meanwhile, the double bedroom shares the same southerly aspect and similar styling as the living area. It is supplemented by a built-in wardrobe and offers plenty of room for bedside furniture. Next door is a contemporary shower room, fitted with a storage-set washbasin, a hidden-cistern toilet, a towel radiator, and a step-in shower. Electric heating and double glazing are throughout.



Outside, there is a well-tended communal garden and private residents’ parking.
