Penthouse living with both a bustling town and calm green space just a stone’s throw away.

Intro

This peaceful penthouse apartment is perfect for anyone wanting the best of all worlds. 

Perfectly positioned to give you the convenience of town living with all its amenities a short walk in one direction, while in the other you have the wellbeing benefits of woodland and green open spaces. 

Inside you have the space to breathe, think and enjoy life to the full.  

And when you want to go further afield, superb road links connect you in all directions by car, while trains, coaches, buses and even barges are all a 15-20 minute walk away, for when you don’t want to drive. This is a highly commutable location.  

Inside 

Entry to the building is through a secure ground floor entry door, with the apartment situated on the third floor, reached by lift or stairs. 

Living/dining/kitchen

This south facing large bright open room is the star of this lovely spacious flat. With windows on two sides and French doors that open onto the semi-circular balcony – the perfect spot for your morning coffee or a sundowner, this hub of the home is somewhere you’ll enjoy spending time. 

The proportions are such that you can easily arrange your furniture to suit your style. The plentiful wall space gives you further scope to express your style in colour, decoration and décor.  

The kitchen comes complete with modern appliances, including induction hob, electric oven, cooker hood/extractor fan, microwave oven, built-in fridge-freezer and dishwasher, even under cupboard lighting. The works.    

Walls are kept clutter-free and the space at a constant comfortable temperature thanks to the underfloor heating, while you’re spared the famously hard Thames Water and watermarked glasses thanks to the water softener – long live your kettle!

Master bedroom

Space, light, a built-in double wardrobe and an en suite shower room – why choose when you can have it all? 

The half-tiled en suite includes a fully-tiled shower enclosure, loo, hand basin, electric towel radiator and wall space for more than one bathroom cabinet – which save those frustrating whose is whose conversations. 

Second bedroom

How you use this well-lit, well-proportioned room, handily positioned far from the master bedroom, is all yours.
