The building is professionally managed by a local management company working alongside an active residents' committee.

Accommodation

The apartment has undergone a comprehensive refurbishment and is beautifully presented throughout. The works were carried out with the intention of the owner living there so the renovations are tasteful, current and uncompromised. A fresh neutral colour scheme, newly fitted carpets, contemporary lighting and glazed internal doors create a bright, modern home ready to move straight into.

The brand-new kitchen has never been used and features gloss-effect cabinetry, contrasting work surfaces and tiled splashbacks and flooring. Integrated appliances include a fridge/freezer, washing machine, slimline dishwasher, electric oven and halogen hob.
A desirable feature is the 19ft dual-aspect lounge/dining room, with windows to both front and rear providing excellent natural light and ample space for both comfortable seating and dining.

The double bedroom is generously proportioned, while the newly fitted and unused bathroom features a contemporary white suite with bath, glazed shower screen and thermostatic shower, together with a vanity unit and fully tiled walls and floor.
