Varndean Park Estate was built in the early 1970s as an exclusive development of houses and apartments set in beautifully manicured grounds. This two-bedroom, two-bathroom apartment is elevated slightly on the first floor of a smart, low-rise building towards the top of the hill, giving it far-reaching, open views across Preston Valley from its balcony. Inside, it is deceptively spacious and exceptionally maintained with many contemporary features and a neutral decor. In addition, the residents get sole use of an outdoor heated swimming pool, a luxury feature from March to October, and this apartment boasts an allocated, secure underground parking space!

Preston Park Station is an easy walk, as are the local shops, making these hugely sought after apartments, which are popular with families, investors, downsizers, and commuters alike, so it is sure to be admired by many.

Why you’ll like it:
This apartment stands in exquisite grounds which are maintained daily by two full time gardeners who tend to the flowering beds, the mature trees and the ornamental pond which lights up at night. Private roads sweep in from Varndean Drive, where this building is first on the right. You approach up some wide steps, through two secure glazed doors into the communal lobby, which is akin to a hotel with well lit, well presented corridors, and both a lift or stairs to take you to your floor. Signs clearly direct you to the apartment, and once inside you are welcomed into an entrance hall where there are deep cupboards for your coats, shoes and household items to keep the space clutter free.

It is immediately apparent that this is a sizable apartment that has been modernised and well maintained with a quality finish and a soothing contemporary palette. A broad corridor separates the main living spaces meaning the bedrooms and bathrooms are peacefully tucked away from the living room. A vast space, ideal for entertaining or family time, it has clearly defined areas for seating and dining, and the far wall feels almost entirely glazed with a picture window alongside a door opening to the balony. A second deep bay window brings in plenty of natural light on two sides and offers the perfect space for a table and chairs so you can watch the birds and wildlife in the trees outside while you eat.

As expected in an apartment of this calibre, the kitchen is modern in white gloss with ruby glass splashbacks offering a welcome pop of colour. The appliances are all conveniently integrated, so you can move straight in with ease, and should you need to wash up, the sink has been placed below the window with equally verdant views.

For professional sharers, or small families this apartment is ideal, as both bedrooms are generous doubles with space for king beds and wardrobes without compromising on floor space. The principal room has a built-in wardrobe, but both enjoy en suite bathrooms with large-scale porcelain wall and floor tiles in grey. One has a gleaming white bath suite with a rainfall shower above it, while the other has a double width walk-in shower.

Parking is easy with a secure underground parking space (number 35) – although it’s also free to park within the estate. The grounds can be enjoyed by the residents and the outdoor swimming pool gives the feeling of being on holiday every day during the warmer seasons.

Agent’s thoughts:
With an air of exclusivity, this apartment certainly suits its surroundings, and being so favourable located for commuters, it is certainly an attractive prospect.

Owner’s thoughts:
“You feel like you are always on holiday here – the community on the Varndean Estate are fantastically friendly, and you live in your own private oasis where you’re well looked after. The swimming pool only adds to this, and it is such a treat in the summer after a long hot day in the city.”
