Your new home


Step inside and smart, flawless engineered hardwood awaits you in your hallway, along with a pair of substantial storage closets. A welcome wealth of extra storage and an abundant addition to London apartment living.

Straight ahead you have your 275 square foot open plan kitchen and reception, more of that elegant engineered hardwood runs underfoot in here, alongside a suite of seamless, smoky grey kitchen cabinetry to one corner.

Worktops are downlit and chunky, in quartz effect matt grey with a simple white splashback between the upper and lower tiers of cabinets. There's a full suite of integrated appliances, plus inset sink and dual oven.

At the other end of the substantial space, your lounge area is bathed in natural light from the oversized windows, and dual aspect thanks to a door leading directly to the balcony. Out here you have a nicely sheltered outdoor solace, timber decked and looking out over the development.

The balcony can also be accessed directly from your bedroom, a large double of 150 square feet, naturally bright with a floor to ceiling window alongside the patio door. Softly carpeted and pristine in white, it's a splendid sleeper.

Finally your bathroom completes things. Sat just off the hallway it's a beautifully boutique spot, with large format smoky sandstone tilework running from tub to ceiling, a discreet integrated suite and a shower over the tub.
