About this property

  • At approximately 115.3 sq m, this is a seriously spacious apartment - ideal if you are downsizing but are not quite ready to part with everything you have accumulated over the years.

  • Storage certainly hasn't been forgotten here, with three cupboards off the impressive 8m+ hallway plus built-in wardrobes in both bedrooms.

  • This is the only apartment on the landing, creating a wonderfully private and exclusive feel as soon as you step out of the lift.

  • The balcony overlooks the private gardens to the rear, giving you a peaceful outdoor space to sit and enjoy the surroundings.

  • Two generous bedrooms and two proper bathrooms make the layout really practical, with an en-suite shower room to the main bedroom and a separate bathroom for guests.

  • Freshly redecorated and ready to move straight into, so you can concentrate on settling in rather than reaching for the paintbrush.

Set just to the left as you enter the driveway into Bishopstoke Park, 3 Twynham Way enjoys a rather special position within the village. Away from the main building, yet still just a short walk from all the facilities, it offers a lovely sense of independence while keeping everything close at hand. Situated on the first floor and accessed by both lift and stairs, this is the only apartment on the landing, giving it a particularly private and exclusive feel.

Step inside and the generous proportions are immediately apparent. The hallway stretches for more than eight metres and has three useful storage cupboards, so there is no shortage of space for coats, shoes, vacuum cleaners and all those things you still need somewhere to put. Extending to approximately 115.3 sq m overall, this is a substantial two bedroom apartment and could be ideal for anyone downsizing from a larger home who is not quite ready to part with all their furniture and belongings.

The living room is a wonderfully spacious place to relax and entertain, with double doors opening through to the kitchen. Here you will find a comprehensive range of fully integrated appliances including a dishwasher, fridge/freezer, washer/dryer, oven, microwave and induction hob. A further set of double doors open from the living room onto the balcony, which overlooks the private gardens to the rear and provides a peaceful spot to sit out and enjoy the surroundings.

Both bedrooms are generous doubles and each has built-in wardrobes, helping to keep the rooms uncluttered. The main bedroom also benefits from its own en-suite shower room, while a separate bathroom serves the second bedroom and guests.

The apartment has also just been redecorated, so there is no list of jobs waiting for the new owner — you can simply move in, unpack and start enjoying it. For anyone concerned that downsizing means compromising on room, storage or privacy, 3 Twynham Way offers a very convincing alternative.
