Redesigned in 2018-2019 by an interior designer, the property which spans 87 sqm (937sq.ft) is in excellent decorative order, benefitting from a unique 3.6m ceiling height throughout and with generous, sleek, made-to-measure wardrobes, shelving and storage, with additional storage available in the house’s basement. It comprises two unusually large and quiet, garden-facing bedrooms, a 29 sqm living room, a kitchen with dine-in potential and a marble-tiled bathroom. The kitchen and bathroom, lighting, electrics and plumbing have been entirely replaced and the large double glazed timber framed sash windows have just been fitted. The original pine wood floorboards have been restored and cleaned to bring more light into what is an already well-lit flat. The front door has also had its security features enhanced. A large communal garden with plenty of space for playing, parties or barbecues and an allocated gated parking space.

The property is sold with a share of the freehold. The management company arranges for weekly cleaning and gardening and oversees any required works. Full internal redecoration to the communal areas and overhaul of the garden were completed in 2018-2019.

This is a fantastic apartment and your immediate viewing will be essential. Video and virtual tours can be seen at Winkworth.co.uk.
