Approached via a well-maintained communal entrance with video entry system, the apartment opens into a welcoming entrance hall leading to all principal rooms.

The neutral décor, pale flooring and high ceilings create a bright and versatile entertaining space.

The separate kitchen is fitted with a range of wall and base units, built-in electric oven and hob with extractor above, together with space for a fridge/freezer and plumbing for a washing machine.

The accommodation is completed by two bedrooms, including a particularly impressive principal bedroom. Bedroom One benefits from a striking bow window with sea views, generous fitted wardrobes extending from floor to ceiling and additional storage. An adjoining en-suite bathroom provides a white suite comprising bath, wash hand basin and WC.

Bedroom Two is a useful second bedroom with fitted flooring and a window, making it equally suitable as a guest bedroom, home office or study.

There is also a separate shower room, fitted with a corner shower cubicle with Mira shower, wash hand basin, WC, heated towel rail, wall heater and extractor fan.

The property retains the graceful proportions associated with its Regency origins while benefiting from more modern features, including energy-efficient windows, lift access and a stylish, move-in-ready presentation.
