Making your way up the stairs to the first floor, you turn left to the end of the corridor and your entrance is to the left.

This is complimented by the modern, fully fitted kitchen to the rear, with integrated appliances such as fridge-freezer, dishwasher, oven, hob, induction hood, sink & drainer, with plenty of worktop space, floor & wall mounted units.

Back down the corridor you have two double bedrooms, with the master to the opposite end of the hall, again, large & bright, with a soft carpet finish & two large feature windows. The second bedroom serves well as a home office if required, while still spacious and light,

The bathroom is fully tiled, sharply finished and comprises of a bath (with overhead shower), wash basin, toilet and under sink cupboard.

There is plenty of storage to be had here also, with a large loft running the length of the home, with a fitted ladder, light & power which can be stood up in. Downstairs and internal to the building, there is a secure storage unit which is ideal for bikes and other outdoor items to be kept dry and secure.

Locally, you are extremely well located, being easy onto the M275 coming in to the city or back out, while a short walk from all the shops and amenities Commercial Road has to offer, while still tucked away from the bustle and noise. The central train station is also in easy reach.
