The Space

The kitchen, located by the entrance, is finished with modern cabinetry, integrated appliances, and a freestanding fridge freezer.

Adjacent to the kitchen is a utility cupboard, while a cloakroom is discreetly positioned near the entrance. The open-plan living and dining space offers ample room for relaxation and entertaining, with large windows drawing in natural light.

 

On one side of the apartment, the main bedroom suite features built-in storage and a contemporary en-suite shower room, complete with a walk-in shower, heated towel rail, and vanity shelf. Like the living area, the main bedroom also enjoys waterside views.

 

At the opposite end of the apartment, two additional bedrooms benefit from their corner-plot position, offering uninterrupted views over the canal, with greenery and historic mills beyond. The family bathroom, equipped with a bath, overhead shower, vanity shelf, and heated towel rail, serves these bedrooms.
