About
Occupying a ground floor position within an attractive Art Deco-inspired development, this well-presented one-bedroom apartment forms part of an exclusive block of just six residences, constructed in 2011.
Offering bright, low-maintenance accommodation and the benefit of allocated parking, the property is ideally suited to first-time buyers, downsizers, investors, or those seeking a conveniently located coastal home.
Positioned along the quiet residential setting of Roman Road, the building enjoys an attractive frontage and secure communal entrance with intercom access.
The apartment itself benefits from a particularly private position within the development, with no adjoining walls shared with neighbouring apartments, creating a greater sense of peace and seclusion.
The accommodation is thoughtfully arranged and comprises a welcoming entrance hall with two useful storage cupboards, leading through to a spacious open-plan living area.
Designed to maximise natural light, the living and dining space enjoys a sunny south-westerly aspect, with fitted shutters enhancing both style and privacy.
The layout flows effortlessly into the modern fitted kitchen, which features sleek high-gloss cabinetry, generous worktop space, an integrated oven with gas hob and extractor, ceramic sink, and space for a freestanding fridge freezer.
The double bedroom is well-proportioned and enjoys a pleasant westerly outlook.
Its generous dimensions provide ample room for wardrobes and additional bedroom furniture, making it a comfortable and practical retreat.
Completing the accommodation is a contemporary bathroom featuring a p-shaped bath with shower over and glazed screen, wall-mounted basin with storage beneath, WC, heated towel rail, attractive tiling, and recessed spotlighting.
Outside, residents benefit from an allocated parking space together with access to a communal bicycle store and refuse area.
