Property Details
Set within the desirable South Wing, this second-floor apartment offers a quiet and private position at the end of a corridor shared with only two other homes. Its elevated outlook provides leafy views across Kershaw Drive and towards Williamson Park, giving the living spaces a bright and relaxing backdrop. Residents benefit from both lift and stair access, including a direct lift at the end of the smaller corridor, and additional exit points positioned throughout the building for ease and safety.
The apartment has been designed with both practicality and comfort in mind. The dual-aspect lounge is filled with natural light, featuring high ceilings, large windows, and French doors that open to a west-facing balcony. This outside space is large enough to accommodate a table and chairs, making it perfect for enjoying the afternoon and evening sun. The kitchen follows a modern U-shaped layout, with sleek light grey gloss units and worktops designed to resemble granite, alongside a range of integrated appliances.
There are two double bedrooms, with the main bedroom including fitted wardrobes and a contemporary en-suite shower room. The second bedroom has a useful built-in cupboard set into the thick wall, providing additional storage. The main bathroom is finished with modern grey tiling and a white three-piece suite. A large hallway cupboard offers further storage, and the apartment benefits from two allocated parking spaces to the front of the building, one of which is visible from the corridor window outside the flat.
