Forming part of an impressive former village school, this beautifully appointed apartment offers

across a single level. The conversion successfully combines the character of the original building
with the convenience of modern living, creating a home equally suited to owner-occupiers and

hall, without the need to negotiate any stairs. The front door to the apartment opens into a
welcoming L-shaped hallway featuring attractive timber-effect flooring and contrasting painted
wall panelling. A particularly useful utility cupboard provides plumbing for a washing machine,
space for a tumble dryer and shelving, as well as housing the wall-mounted gas boiler serving
the central heating system.

and kitchen area, extending to approximately 22'10" (max. Length). This wonderfully light and
spacious room is distinguished by a beautiful Gothic-style feature window, a reminder of the
building's former use, together with additional natural light from an opening skylight window.
There is ample space for comfortable seating and dining, making this an excellent room for both
everyday living and entertaining.
The contemporary kitchen is fitted with a stylish range of high-gloss units complemented by
wood-effect work surfaces and a generous breakfast bar providing informal seating. Integrated
appliances include an electric oven, microwave, electric hob with extractor above and a slimline
dishwasher.
There are two well-proportioned bedrooms, both enjoying pleasant natural light. The principal
bedroom is a good size double and benefits from its own modern en-suite shower room, fitted
with a glazed shower enclosure, wash basin and WC. The second bedroom enjoys a dual aspect,
including a skylight window, and offers flexibility as a guest bedroom or as a home office.
Completing the accommodation is a contemporary family bathroom with a bath and shower over, attractive tiling, a wash basin, WC and heated towel rail.
