View our virtual reality tour and video walk through

This is a stunning example of a one-bedroom period property that offers over 530 sq ft of living space.

The property is representative of many images you will see in current day interior design magazines. Some of the on-trend features include a grey and white colour scheme with hints of warmth from the wooden effect flooring and kitchen worktop as an example. A second example is the contrasting painted floor boards in the bedrooms against the white interior of the room.

The bathroom and kitchen both feature metro style tiles. The kitchen cupboards feature handless doors to create a wonderfully clean aesthetic look and the bathroom follows through on the same trend with a matt black basin tap as well as other fixtures that make the design features pop out.

The combination of modern interior blends seamlessly with period style features. Taking the semi open plan lounge area as an example you will notice how the detail of the cornicing and the feature fire place surround stand out due to the light grey walls which create the perfect contrast with the white features.

In addition, the character charm has been maintained to the front and rear of the property despite being modernised. The windows are sliding sash in style (as the original period windows are likely to have been) but are double glazed replacements increasing the energy efficiency of the property whilst maintaining the character appeal.

There is no doubt the property is visually striking as you can see in the images, virtual tour and video. However, alongside all the wonderful inter design features there are other very appealing features not visible in the images.

Three of those features are:
Share of freehold
parking

No regular service charge (As the owners run the building themselves rather than paying a management company, they agree maintenance works on an as and when basis).
