Set up and back from the tree-lined street, the grand entrance is secured by answer phone and the communal hall is shared by only 1 apartment. A door opens to a private staircase which leads to this expansive property which with no-one above, feels very quiet and private.

On the first floor, a broad central hallway has a high ceiling overhead. Ahead, of classic proportions and understated elegance, the beautiful living room has a stately bay window to frame the leafy, historic street and high above the street it is a comfortable refuge with versatile space of 4.27 x 4.0m (14’0 x 13’1) to welcome friends and family and a period style fireplace to enjoy.

Next door, the bright and cheerful kitchen is perfect for every day but also for entertaining with ample storage and practical work tops, and it’s good to go with an integrated gas hob, electric oven and plumbing for a washing machine.

Private and peaceful at the back of this substantial property with garden views, two generous double bedrooms have the restful proportions only period homes can deliver, one with fitted wardrobes in place, the other with alcoves, and both have space for a workstation. A secluded eyrie high above the street at tree top level, the third, inviting bedroom, used as the principal, has a beautifully high ceiling, designer wallpaper and a gracious bay to bathe room with morning light.

At the far end of the maisonette, the airy bathroom has a high-spec, contemporary finish where the bathtub has a shower wand and there is space for a large walk in, dual head shower.
