Read the full agent description
1 Danby Heights Close occupies a particularly appealing position within this established private close in Wellswood, enjoying a southerly aspect with attractive open views across Lincombe Woods towards the sea. Arranged over two levels, this individual duplex apartment combines generous accommodation with excellent outside space, two allocated parking spaces and is offered for sale with no onward chain.
One of the property's strongest features is the amount of natural light throughout. The principal living space faces south, with broad windows and glazed doors making the most of the outlook and opening directly onto a private balcony.
The accommodation is approached through a communal entrance, with a private front door opening into the reception hall. A useful cloakroom is positioned off the hall with WC and wash hand basin.
The sitting/dining room is a bright and well-proportioned space with full-width glazing framing the leafy outlook towards Lincombe Woods and the sea beyond. Patio doors extend the living space onto the balcony, creating an excellent place for outdoor seating and to enjoy the southerly setting.
The kitchen is fitted with a range of white high-gloss units complemented by marble-effect work surfaces and an inset sink. Integrated appliances include an electric oven and ceramic hob, with space and plumbing for a washing machine and fridge/freezer. A cupboard houses the gas boiler.
Stairs descend from the reception hall to the garden level, where the hallway incorporates useful additional space suitable for a desk, dressing area or further storage.
The principal bedroom is a particularly attractive double room with windows and sliding patio doors opening directly onto its own private paved terrace and the garden beyond. This provides a lovely connection between the bedroom and outside space and is a feature rarely found with apartment living.
The second bedroom is another versatile room, currently arranged as a snug, with glazed doors opening to the side garden.
The bathroom is fitted with a white suite comprising panelled bath with mains shower above, wash basin set within a vanity unit and concealed cistern WC, together with a heated towel rail, tiled flooring and window.
There is also an additional L-shaped room, currently utilised as further sleeping accommodation, which could equally suit a home office, dressing room or hobby space. From here there is access to a substantial walk-in storage room.
With its unusual duplex layout, private garden, terraces, parking and attractive outlook, the property offers considerably more independence and outside space than many traditional apartments in the area.
