The property

Part of S1 Developments award-winning Ellersly House in desirable Murrayfield, this two-bedroom ground floor apartment expertly combines luxury design with sustainable technology to create an exceptionally bright, spacious and fully-accessible home. The core elements of natural light and fresh air are reflected in its vast swathes of glass, as well as sophisticated heating and ventilation systems. The flawless, contemporary finish draws on a palette of natural materials, including a sandstone and cedar external façade, and rich solid oak and stone flooring within. Approached via the gated residents’ car park and a secure shared entrance, welcoming you into the apartment is a spacious hall with a cloak cupboard and a shelved store. At the heart of the home is the magnificent south-facing living room and dining kitchen, which is flooded with light from fullheight windows and doors onto the private front patio. The gloss-white fitted kitchen is topped with grey Silestone and incorporates a vast peninsula with bar seating - perfect for relaxed dining or working from home. In addition to extensive storage and workspace, the kitchen hosts a full range of Siemens integrated appliances: an induction hob with a slimline extractor hood, a double oven/combination microwave oven, a dishwasher, a wine cooler, a full-size fridge and an under-counter freezer. In warmer months the south-facing front patio becomes a charming outdoor entertaining space, complete with shade, shelter and outdoor lighting/power. Across the hall, the master bedroom boasts twin full-height windows/doors onto the private rear garden, both of which are screened by traditional louvre-style shutters. In addition to bespoke fitted wardrobes, the master bedroom enjoys a contemporary en-suite with twin vanity basins, an anti-mist mirror and a walk-in shower compartment. The second double bedroom also benefits from fitted wardrobes and direct access to the rear garden. Completing the accommodation are the immaculate three-piece family bathroom and the fitted utility room, which houses a washing machine and a tumble dryer. Gas and electric underfloor heating systems, plus ultra-efficient double glazing and insulation ensure year round home comfort and economy. The apartment is also furnished with an intruder alarm, an audio/video entry-phone system, waste disposal and an HTI home entertainment system. Externally the apartment boasts a private patio to the front, a private walled garden to the rear and a secure shed to the side. Residents also enjoy use of a landscaped communal garden with a pavilion that can be reserved for private events. The apartment benefits from one allocated parking space in the gated residents’ car park, as well as access to a secure bike store on-site.
