What The Owner Says:

"I first bought this flat just over 2 years ago as a first time buyer and when I viewed it I knew immediately that it was ideal as my first home. It had everything I could possibly need with all the appliances built in and in a great location ideal for commuting making it a great starting home. Even though it is a flat within a block with a great community i’ve always felt its position gives it a wonderful independent and detached feeling which is lovely.”
