The Space

 

The entrance leads into a spacious open-plan kitchen, dining, and living area, with wood flooring flowing seamlessly throughout, adding a cohesive and inviting feel.

The kitchen is the focal point of the home, showcasing bold blue cabinetry accented with elegant gold fixtures. A central island provides generous worktop space, integrated storage, and casual seating, with wood panelling on the seating side that complements the contemporary farmhouse style apron sink and charming open wooden shelving. Integrated appliances create clean lines, while pendant lights suspended above the island define the kitchen zone, adding both warmth and functionality.

The living area exudes a sense of openness, with tall ceilings and expansive windows. The open-plan layout accommodates a dining area, thoughtfully enhanced with elegant wall uplighting and minimalist shelving, creating a cosy setting for dining and relaxation.

Just off the main living area, the principal bedroom suite is bright and inviting, with a generous window spanning the length of the wall. Pendant lights hang by the bedsides, adding a warm, ambient glow to the room.

The en-suite bathroom is designed with a striking blend of textures and finishes. Glossy green tiles line one wall, contrasting with the opposing bright whitewashed walls and gold fixtures. A bath with an overhead shower is enclosed by a black-framed shower screen featuring fluted glass. Black and white triangular floor tiles introduce a bold geometric element, adding depth to the space. Completing the design, the en-suite features a circular freestanding sink and heated towel rail.

On the other side of the plan, an additional bedroom offers the convenience of a built-in wardrobe. Adjacent, the main bathroom includes a generous walk-in shower, framed with vertically stacked glossy green tiles and a distinctive fluted glass screen. Gold fixtures complete the design, echoing the accents found throughout the apartment. 

There are two convenient storage cupboards by the entrance. Additionally, this property includes a dedicated parking space.
