Kings Estates are delighted to offer this beautifully presented raised ground floor apartment, set within an attractive Victorian villa and perfectly positioned for those wanting period character, generous proportions and a highly convenient town location.
From the moment you arrive, the property showcases the charm and elegance you would expect from a home of this era — high ceilings, ornate cornicing, striking fireplaces and impressive bay sash windows all combine to create a wonderful sense of space and warmth. Extending to approximately 1,205 sq ft, this is a particularly substantial apartment by comparison to many modern equivalents, and it lends itself perfectly to professional tenants seeking a refined home with room to breathe.
A solid wood front door opens into a welcoming entrance hall, featuring wooden flooring, an entry phone system and useful built-in storage, setting the tone for the quality and practicality found throughout. The layout flows beautifully and offers excellent separation between living space and bedrooms.
To the rear, the heart of the home is the impressive kitchen/diner — a superb entertaining space with a real "wow" factor thanks to the high ceilings, decorative cornicing and a charming cast iron fireplace with tiled inserts. The room is further enhanced by a large bay sash window with wooden shutters, allowing plenty of natural light and creating an ideal setting for dining, hosting or working from home. The kitchen itself offers a range of wall and base units with worktops over, incorporating a sink with drainer, electric oven and hob with extractor, plus integrated dishwasher and washing machine, combining period appeal with modern convenience.
From here, impressive arched wooden doors open into the sitting room, providing an elegant and relaxing space to unwind. Light and airy, the room is again framed by period detailing, a feature fireplace and a large bay window with double glazing to the front — ideal for a comfortable lounge arrangement and a lovely sense of outlook.
The apartment offers two genuine double bedrooms, both well-proportioned and benefitting from the characterful feel of the building. The principal bedroom is an excellent size and features ornate cornicing, a large double-glazed bay sash window with shutters, a deep built-in wardrobe and a smart en-suite shower room finished with tiled walls and flooring, a generous shower enclosure and heated towel rail. The second bedroom is equally welcoming, offering a large sash window to the rear along with plentiful storage via a wardrobe and additional cupboard — ideal for guests, a home office or a second double bedroom setup.
Completing the accommodation is a family bathroom with a white suite comprising a panelled bath with shower attachment and shower over, wash basin, WC, heated towel rail and a stained glass rear window which adds a lovely finishing touch and further nod to the property's Victorian roots.
In addition to the main accommodation, residents benefit from a separate utility room, accessed via the communal staircase, providing extra practicality with plumbing and space for additional appliances.
Externally, the property enjoys access to an attractive communal garden, mainly laid to lawn — perfect for a coffee in the sunshine or a bit of fresh air without the upkeep. Parking is available to the rear of the property on an unallocated basis. There is no numbered or specifically assigned parking space.
A rare opportunity to secure a characterful and notably spacious apartment in such a convenient setting — early viewing is highly recommended.
