The layout includes a sizeable living room that opens to a fitted kitchen, two well-proportioned bedrooms with mirror-front wardrobes, and an en-suite to the master — practical for working professionals, students, or first-time buyers.
The property is offered chain-free and includes one allocated off-street parking space and communal landscaped grounds. The long lease (approximately 133 years remaining) provides security of tenure, though the apartment is leasehold and buyers should confirm all lease details.
