Why you’ll like it:

The buildings of Wellend Villas were completely refurbished in recent years and are perfectly positioned close to the city centre whilst also being bordered by the lush green environs of Preston Park. The development is contemporary having built only 14 years ago, but the use of natural timber panelling softens the clean lines of its modern exterior. You gain access from either the main entrance on Preston Road or via Springfield Road which opens to the internal courtyard where there is a raised decked area with a communal kitchen garden and space to sit out in the sunshine.

From the moment you enter it is clear this is a beautifully maintained apartment. The entrance hall is wide and welcoming with a deep cupboard for storing shoes, coats and household item.

An internal room, the bathroom is well-lit and ventilated and has been clearly maintained with a gleaming white bath suite and classic tiling. There is a shower over the bath plus a basin and WC.

Conveniently across the hall, the double bedroom is particularly spacious and has a double fitted wardrobe to maximise the floor space. A generous window brightens the space naturally with light filtering in during the morning to gently wake you and being double glazed ensures warmth and quiet.

Spanning the depth of the apartment, the main reception room is open plan to the kitchen providing ample space for formal dining, a work space and for relaxation. Another full height wall of glazing opens to the balcony which becomes an extension of the home during summer and being covered means it can be used all year round. There is space to sit outside for dining alfresco, where you can view the attractive urban landscape, taking in the viaduct and distant city vista, and there’s also space to grow plants which get plenty of sunshine from the south and east.

Returning inside, the kitchen forms asits at the rear of the room where it has several light-wood, modern units at both wall and base levels, topped with practical worktops. Into these the fan oven and gas hob have been integrated, as well as the washing machine and a tall fridge freezer.
