A bright and spacious luxury two-bedroom first floor apartment, enjoying a convenient position located centrally within this highly sought-after South Cambridgeshire village.
The property was constructed in 2011 by the highly reputable and award-winning Hill Partnership. The development has matured beautifully with established trees and planted beds creating a peaceful setting in the heart of Great Shelford with all the amenities on the doorstep and making a wonderful community. The apartment is located on the first floor towards the rear of the block. The apartment offers bright and spacious accommodation with views over the communal gardens to the rear. There is a communal entrance hall with entry phone system and communal seating area with stairs and an elevator to the first floor. Once inside the apartment the accommodation comprises an entrance hall with antico flooring and a walk-in airing cupboard. There are two double bedrooms, master bedroom benefitting from fitted wardrobe cupboards and a luxury en-suite shower room fitted with Duravit sanitary ware. There is an additional bathroom with a bath tub and again Duravit sanitary ware. The open planned kitchen/dining/sitting room enjoys a dual aspect, again with views over the communal gardens. The well appointed kitchen/breakfast room is fitted with contemporary cabinetry, sile stone working surfaces and breakfast bar with inset one and a half sink unit with mixer tap and double drainer and a range of Siemens appliances including four ring gas hob, fan assisted oven, microwave combination oven and extractor hood, full height fridge/freezer, washing machine and dishwasher.
Outside there is allocated parking for one car plus visitor parking. The development is run by elected residence directors in charge of the maintenance and the communal electricity areas, communal gardening areas and external window cleaning at a cost of £2,210 per annum for each resident. The residents have also converted what was originally the site office to a rather pleasant meeting room called the Toska room where coffee mornings and yoga classes are a regular occurrence and gives the scheme an individual and community feel.
