Agents note "Norman Leys" is a stunning former detached period residence standing in its own extensive, manicured shared grounds. This fine period dwelling has been thoughtfully and sympathetically converted into a handful of high quality apartments in a secluded, premium setting. Located on the ground floor, apartment one is arguably the finest of these retaining some of the most impressive, main living spaces from the original dwelling. As such the apartment retains a wealth of charm and character with high ceilings and gorgeous extensive fenestration. Double glazed floor to ceiling windows and doors looking out over and given access to an adjacent patio and the gorgeous gardens beyond.
Apartment one also affords a wonderfully capacious dining kitchen and adjacent supremely spacious sitting room. Magnificent, heavily panelled folding doors can be set back to open up the two rooms into a stunning combined space, enough to hold a dance in, or, they can be pulled shut to create two separate living and or dining spaces along complemented by a refitted stylish modern kitchen. The apartment also offers two generous ensuite double bedrooms a and separate cloaks/wc.
Externally the property offers a grand gated entrance with stone pillars opening to an extensive gravelled parking area. This continuing round to the main entrance. From just beyond this entrance the main gardens open out. These beautiful and unusually large, predominantly communal gardens are well tended mature in nature and with a very good degree of privacy. This creating a wonderful atmosphere which in the case of apartment one can be enjoyed both outside "and" from the inside with the views and access afforded by this wonderful home.
Entrance porch An impressive, open fronted, canopied entrance porch with door opening to the entrance hall.
Main entrance hall The magnificent communal entrance hall is that of the original property. It truly sets the tone of space, quality and period grandeur that in the case of apartment one is repeated in that too. Beautiful stained glass "leaded lights" let in an abundance of natural light and gentle coloured tones to the hall with extensive timber panelling and a fabulous staircase rising to the first floor landing which when looking up to the vaulted ceiling one takes in the glorious lantern skylight. A further feature being a grand period fireplace beyond which the door to apartment one can be found.
Private entrance hall 12' 8" x 7' 5 (Max)" (3.86m x 2.26m) The substantial timber door from the main hall opens in to the private entrance hall for the apartment. Doors lead to the following accommodation
kitchen/dining room 20' 0" x 17' 9" (6.1m x 5.41m) Spacious and most attractive dual purpose room.

Built in appliances including five ring gas hob, multi-function oven and grill over both of these a stainless steel, chimney style fan hood, built in 60/40 fridge freezer, fully integrated AEG washing machine and fully integrated dishwasher. As mentioned above this room has original panelled folding doors which can either be closed to create a lovely kitchen/dining room or folded back to link into the stunning sitting room, creating a wonderful, triple purpose, open plan living space to rival any contemporary apartment but better it with its wonderfully high ceilings, floor to ceiling doors and windows as well as the lovely views through and access to the gorgeous gardens.
