About

The kitchen is from John Lewis and features a granite worktop over light wood cabinets, with integrated appliances including a Neff four-ring gas hob, Neff oven, Neff dishwasher, Bosch washing machine and Siemens fridge/freezer.
The living room flows directly from the kitchen and has beautiful bespoke wooden cabinets alongside an engineered wood floor.

The third floor has two further bedrooms: the principal bedroom at the front, enjoying a lovely view over Ainslie Place Gardens, with an en suite bathroom; and double bedroom two to the rear, which also benefits from an en suite shower room.
There is excellent storage throughout the home, and slimline double glazing is installed throughout. Extensive recent roof works include a newly installed chimney between 21 and 22 Ainslie Place.
