Property Insight:

If you’re looking for a stylish property in the heart of town – this maisonette fits the bill perfectly! Located in the Paynes Park area, Poppy House is a small and exclusive development of just 12 properties built in 2021.

The property feels lovely and bright from the moment you step inside. The entrance hall features a large storage cupboard - ideal for hiding away any clutter – as well as space to store coats and shoes. Leading off from the entrance hall is the spacious, open plan living/kitchen/dining area. Featuring timber flooring and crisp white walls, the space feels distinctly contemporary and is zoned into kitchen, relaxation and dining areas.

The modern kitchen has sleek, high-gloss pale grey cabinetry, stylish chrome sockets and integrated appliances, with a good amount of worktop and storage space for preparing meals (but if you fancy a night off cooking, you can pick from the multitude of international cuisines available via the many restaurants on your doorstep!)

The sitting area has plenty of room for a large, comfy sofa and there’s also space to comfortably fit a dining table and chairs, making it a space that’s as great for entertaining friends as it is for relaxing after a day at work. The bay window is a lovely addition which introduces plenty of natural light, making the room feel spacious and bright.

The internal hallway leads through to the bedroom and bathroom and has room for additional furniture, such as a console table or chest of drawers. The double bedroom feels wonderfully calming, thanks to its tasteful olive-green colour scheme, and is spacious enough to accommodate all the furniture you need.

The bathroom is fully tiled with marble-effect wall tiles and contemporary design floor tiles. It features a full-sized bath with shower over and a wall-mounted vanity unit and feels stylish and modern.

Located a 20-minute stroll from the station, this well-presented maisonette has plenty to offer and would make a fantastic purchase for first-time buyers or investors.
