Read the full agent description

Apartment 3 forms part of the highly regarded redevelopment of The Old School, an historic building originally constructed in 1902 as a prestigious boarding school for girls and infants before later evolving into a grammar school and college.

In 2017, the building underwent an exceptional transformation into 24 unique contemporary apartments, carefully converted to preserve the charm, atmosphere and architectural heritage of this striking period building. Original features including sash windows, parquet flooring, painted brickwork and impressive ceiling heights remain central to its appeal.

This spacious, duplex-style Ground Floor apartment offers beautifully presented accommodation arranged over 2 levels, blending character and modern living to excellent effect.

The heart of the home is the impressive, open-plan Lounge / Kitchen, a striking space enhanced by a vaulted ceiling rising to approximately 15' and a full-height secondary glazed picture window which floods the room with natural light. Character features include parquet flooring and an attractive fireplace with floating timber mantle and tiled hearth.

The Kitchen is fitted with a comprehensive range of modern units incorporating granite effect work surfaces, a breakfast bar and a selection of integrated appliances including oven, microwave, hob, fridge / freezer, dishwasher and washing machine.

To the Ground Floor is Bedroom 2 together with a contemporary Bathroom fitted with a modern white suite.

A staircase rises to the First Floor Landing where the galleried mezzanine provides a versatile Study / Bedroom 3 overlooking the Lounge below and enjoying distant town, countryside and river glimpses through the impressive picture window.

The Principal Bedroom is also situated on this level and benefits from built-in wardrobes together with an En-Suite Shower Room.

Outside, the property enjoys the benefit of 2 allocated parking spaces together with additional visitor parking. Residents also enjoy access to beautifully maintained communal gardens featuring lawns, mature trees, flower borders and a feature pond, all enclosed by attractive natural stone walls providing a high degree of privacy.
