A well presented ground floor apartment offering a spacious open plan living area, a separate fitted kitchen, two comfortable double bedrooms, a modern bathroom, and the added benefit of an en suite shower room. Perfect for first time buyers or those looking for ground floor living with parking, this one is ideal.
Entered through a secure communal hallway, the apartment's entrance hall has space for coats and shoes, and it takes you to the rest of the rooms of the property. The main living/dining area is open and welcoming, with enough space to clearly define a lounge area and a dining space without feeling crowded. Natural light fills the room, making it feel bright through the day, while the shape of the room allows furniture to be arranged in a way that suits both relaxing and entertaining.
Just off the living space sits the fitted U shape kitchen, which offers a good range of wall and base units, giving plenty of storage for food, cookware, and everyday items. Worktop space is generous enough for food preparation, and the layout keeps everything within easy reach. Built in cooking appliances such as electric oven, and electric hob, and a kitchen sink with draining board, and a further space for a stand alone washing machine and space for tall fridge freezer.
The main bedroom sits to the rear, looking out towards the communal garden areas. There is ample space for a double bed and additional furniture such as wardrobes or drawers, and an en suite shower room adds a valuable layer of privacy and convenience. The second bedroom is also a true double, again enjoying views over the wrap around communal gardens and with space for wardrobes. This room works well as a guest room, a home office, or a flexible space that can change as needs evolve, which is ideal for buyers thinking long term.
The main bathroom is finished in a simple, timeless style with a three piece suite that includes a bath with a shower over. A useful storage cupboard houses the hot water tank and can be utilised as a handy airing cupboard space. Recently upgraded electric heating and double glazing run throughout the apartment, helping to keep the temperature comfortable and the space quiet, while also supporting lower maintenance living.
Outside, residents can enjoy well kept communal garden areas and an allocated parking space, with visitor spaces on a first come first serve basis.
The local area adds greatly to the appeal of the property, especially for buyers who want convenience close to home. A range of everyday amenities are within easy reach, including shops, services, and places to eat or meet friends. This makes running errands simple and helps support a lifestyle where the car is not always needed. For those working or studying in the city, access into the centre is straightforward, making commuting feel manageable and reducing travel time. Public transport options are close by, offering regular services that connect to key parts of the city and beyond. For drivers, routes out towards the ring road and the A64 are easy to reach, which is ideal for those who need to travel further afield for work or family commitments. This balance of city access and outward routes makes the location especially attractive to professionals and investors alike, as it suits a wide range of lifestyles. Green spaces in the wider area provide opportunities for walking and outdoor activity, adding to the sense of balance between urban living and personal wellbeing.
