Lounge/Kitchen (4.45m x 3.34m (14'7" x 10'11"))
Stepping into this open-plan space, you're immediately greeted by an abundance of natural light pouring in through the large windows. The layout feels genuinely spacious, offering a comfortable and inviting area to relax and unwind. The kitchen is thoughtfully integrated, featuring a good selection of cream-coloured base and wall units that provide ample storage. A fitted oven and hob are already in place, and there is designated space for a washing machine – a practical and convenient touch. A tiled splashback adds a smart, clean finish, while the laminate flooring runs throughout, creating a cohesive and low-maintenance environment. Overall, the space is clean, functional, and well-suited to both everyday living and casual entertaining.
Master Bedroom (4m x 3.54m (13'1" x 11'7"))
This is a really generously sized master bedroom. The laminate flooring continues here, contributing to the bright and airy feel. The large window allows plenty of daylight and offers views of the surrounding area. There is ample room for a large bed as well as space for a substantial wardrobe, providing excellent storage potential. The room feels calm and inviting, making it a true retreat.
Second Bedroom (3.3m x 2.66m (10'9" x 8'8"))
This room offers a highly practical and versatile space. Generously sized, it could comfortably function as a guest room, a child’s bedroom, or a productive home office.
The light grey-toned flooring lends a modern, clean aesthetic, perfectly complemented by neutral white walls. A key feature is the window, which allows for a pleasant flow of natural light, enhancing the bright and airy feel of the room.
Bathroom (2.5m x 1.69m (8'2" x 5'6"))
The bathroom features a standard white three-piece suite, comprising a bath with an electric shower above, offering added flexibility. The wall-mounted basin and WC are neatly integrated, maximising the available space.
Partial tiling around the bath and sink provides a practical and attractive finish. A window is a valuable feature, allowing natural light to enter and providing ventilation.
Balcony (3.45m x 0.78m (11'3" x 2'6"))
The private balcony is a definite bonus, providing a dedicated outdoor space. It is a good size and can comfortably accommodate a small table and chairs, making it perfect for enjoying a morning coffee or some fresh air. For added convenience, the balcony is fitted with protective netting and features a surprisingly useful built-in storage area, ideal for keeping outdoor items neatly tucked away.
