Positioned on the first floor of an impressive red-brick Victorian villa, the apartment enjoys the timeless elegance of period architecture. The building is visually striking, and a smart communal entrance hall leads you up to the flat via a well-maintained staircase. Once inside, the property has been thoughtfully looked after, with crisp, neutral interiors designed to suit a variety of tastes and furnishings.
The main living area benefits from high ceilings and generous dimensions that allow distinct zones for cooking, dining, sleeping, and relaxing. Twin west-facing sash windows flood the space with afternoon light and offer pleasant views over mature street trees and handsome neighbouring homes. The recessed kitchenette blends in seamlessly, equipped with contemporary white units, an integrated electric hob and oven, and a fridge freezer tucked neatly under the counter.
Heating is provided by efficient electric wall-mounted units, keeping the space cosy during cooler months. The shower room is separate and has been finished in natural-toned tiles with a mosaic detail, featuring a large shower enclosure and a mirrored cabinet for everyday essentials.

And in the warmer months, it’s a joy to leave the office and be by the sea in minutes.”
