Flat 9, Firstone House is an incredibly spacious, top floor penthouse apartment in a converted former Pub comprising just nine flats, converted in around 1990.
The apartment itself has seen some cosmetic enhancements in recent years, having some new carpets and bathroom flooring, a new kitchen and updated bathroom suites.
There is a private entrance hall on the first floor, offering storage/study space, and a large, useful storage cupboard, gas central heating, double glazing and allocated parking space. There is a buzzer entry system, communal garden and an allocated parking space.
One enters the main building via the communal entrance, with a stairwell to the first floor, and a private door to the reception hall.
Stairs lead up to the main penthouse, comprising a central landing, with the large sitting room to one side, with two dormer windows to the front, plus double doors leading into the kitchen/dining room.
The kitchen units and worktops have been replaced and upgraded recently, with new flooring, making the room feel brighter and more modern.
The adjacent bathroom also had some cosmetic enhancements, and comprises a bath with a shower over, WC and basin, towel rail, part tiled walls and window.
The main bedroom is vast, when compared to similar apartments, with easily enough space for a bed, wardrobes, sofa and dressing area. There are two windows to rear that offer the best of any views you can get in the winter. A door leads into the en-suite, comprising a new WC, bath with shower over, basin and new flooring.
The second bedroom is also accessed off the landing, and shares the same outlook to the rear. There is also a useful, high level store room off the landing, and large eaves storage area accessed via the kitchen.
Outside, there is a part fenced and part walled communal garden, predominantly laid to lawn, with a few shrubs and flowers, plus a tarmac communal parking area, of which one space is allocated to flat 9.
