A separate kitchen sits centrally within the apartment, fitted with modern cabinetry and generous worktop space, thoughtfully positioned between the living and bedroom areas for practical day-to-day use.
To the rear, the principal bedroom is a generous double with bespoke fitted wardrobes and direct access onto a private balcony via sliding doors. The outlook is notably green and private, providing a tucked-away feel rarely found in such a central location. The second bedroom offers excellent flexibility as a guest room, home office or nursery.
The bathroom has been recently updated by the current owner and is finished in a sleek, contemporary style, featuring modern tiling and a walk-in shower. Additional storage is available from the entrance hall.
