Why you’ll like it:
Built within the last decade, Coastal Place is a striking and contemporary building, which has been created using the finest materials. It has plenty of kerb appeal with crisp lines and curves on its immaculate façade, with vast gabled windows glistening in the southerly sun. It has an air of exclusivity, with a sweeping drive to access the secure underground carpark, plus the grounds and communal gardens are beautifully manicured. You access via two secure doors and a video entry system, to a neat communal hallway where this apartment is clearly numbered on the ground floor.

Once inside, it is clear this is a chic and spacious apartment. Engineered oak flooring runs from the wide and welcoming entrance hall, past two deep storage cupboards, and into the generous, open plan living room where the kitchen sits discreetly to the left. French doors with shutters frame views over the peaceful communal garden, but first is the private patio to this apartment which is open to the east and west to receive plenty of sunshine during the warmer seasons.

Open plan, but cleverly zoned, there are defined areas for relaxation, formal dining and cooking, plus plenty of space to entertain in style – spilling out to the garden during summer for dining alfresco. Streamlined and stylish, the kitchen is well-designed to include fully integrated appliances and plenty of useful storage in handle-free cabinetry.

Returning to the hall, you pass the chic shower room where large scale wall tiles surround a spacious walk-in shower with a rainfall shower head to revive you each morning before work. Large, fixed wall mirrors bounce the light around bringing both form and function to the room and a tall, heated rail warms you and your towels.
Conveniently nearby, bedroom two has plush carpet underfoot and ample space for a king-size bed and several pieces of bedroom furniture, while next door, the principal room shares the same sunny outlook. In here the walls have been adorned with designer paper and there is a wall of sleek built-in storage to maximise the floor space further.

Outside, the landscaped communal gardens wrap themselves around Coastal Place to provide an abundance of peaceful outdoor space to include water features, bridges, decking and a wealth of established plants combined to offer a beautiful space to relax in the rear garden, while palms, alliums and geraniums offer a tropical feel to the front of the complex.
