Why you'll like it:

A stroll from Preston Park Station and the Dials, at the cusp of a quiet junction there are only magnificent views over Preston Park opposite this attractive Victorian house. Set up and back from the road with broad bays and architectural detail, it is also worth noting that some neighbouring houses have Velux windows in their roofline. With a sunny, east west orientation, inside is very inviting with high ceilings, wood floors and large double glazed windows throughout, and the communal hall is shared only by the freeholder.

At the top of your private staircase, the stylish kitchen is large enough for dining and although it looks effortless it is skilfully planned with French doors opening to a balcony with steps down to the garden, making an al fresco lifestyle easy. Inside, gleaming wood surfaces tie in with the natural wood floor and the gas hob, electric oven and fashionable Belfast sink are integrated for you. Ample storage includes glass shelving, the large cupboard also conceals plumbing for a washing machine and the dishwasher, fridge and freezer could stay subject to circumstance and negotiation.

Outside, a deck leads down to a west facing walled garden which is child and pet secure. Already paved it is Ideal for entertaining and a flower bed running across the far wall is a broad blank canvas waiting for green fingers.
Returning inside, a light and airy bathroom has a Victorian influence with a freestanding bath and traditional shower above it. Wood panelled walls are painted in a soothing hue and touches of luxury include a circular ceramic hand basin on chic storage and a radiator designed to warm your towels.

Up past fitted bookshelves and period finials, at the front of the apartment the broad landing has access to the attic and fitted wardrobes just outside the single bedroom, which has restful open views making it very private. Shelving is high above your head and what appears to be a built in sofa pulls out to become a comfortable single bed.

Next door, the spacious living room is a classic beauty with a broad east bay flooding the room with sunshine and bringing in spectacular views over the verdant acres of Preston Park to our glittering metropolis. Streamlined shelves and cabinets have not disturbed the elegant coving, the handsome fireplace is open for winter evenings and there is plenty of floorspace giving scope to zone.

Quiet at the back with garden views and historic character of its own, the generous double bedroom is ready for your move with fresh decoration, room for wardrobes and a pretty fireplace with a discreet computer station to one side.
