The shower room is lined with white horizontal micro-metro linear tiles and has a fully enclosed, glass fronted shower cubicle with hot water supplied by the gas fired boiler. There is also a wall hung basin and a heated ladder towel rail. There is a separate, naturally lit WC with a close-coupled toilet and a wall-mounted basin, enclosed in a vanity unit.

The flat is double glazed and has gas fired central heating.
