Reached by a communal entrance, the flat's front door opens into welcoming hall with timber-style flooring and oak doors to the accommodation. The spacious living/dining room is decorated in a neutral palette and is filled with natural light from a southwest-facing sash window, which enjoys a bright open outlook across the cul-de-sac. A classic timber mantelpiece and tiled hearth form the ideal frame for the warm electric stove and a focal point for relaxing furniture. The room also features an Edinburgh Press and decorative cornicing and low-level cabinetry with handy countertops. In the kitchen, gleaming white cabinets match the crisp decor with timber-style worktops and light splashback tiles illuminated by under-cabinet lighting. The kitchen is replete with a range of appliances. A comfortable double bedroom sits adjacent to the living area, continuing the neutral styling for a bright and modern ambience. It has a favourable southerly-facing aspect lit by a large sash window and a slim-line electric panel heater for warmth and cosiness. Completing the home is a three-piece shower room.
