Originally built during the Victorian era, Holly Lodge is positioned on a leafy road amongst characterful properties. Converted approximately six years ago, this second-floor apartment offers bright, contemporary accommodation with a well-designed open plan layout and two double bedrooms, while the building retains its elegant period feel. Residents benefit from a secure communal entrance with an electric fob entry system. The welcoming open plan kitchen, dining and sitting room enjoys a dual aspect, allowing natural light to flood the space throughout the day. The kitchen is fitted with sleek contemporary cabinetry, with a range of integrated appliances including a Bosch induction hob, oven, microwave and wine cooler. The space further benefits from an instant hot water tap and modern extractor fan, and there is ample space for dining and relaxed seating. A separate utility room provides additional storage and space for appliances as well as useful loft space accessed from the hallway.

The principal bedroom benefits from built-in wardrobes and a smart en suite bathroom, while the second double bedroom also features built-in storage and is served by a beautifully appointed shower room.

Outside

Holly Lodge is set behind a block paved driveway with mature planting. The communal garden is enclosed and laid to lawn with a terrace for al fresco dining or relaxing - an ideal spot for morning coffee. The property also benefits from an allocated off-road parking space for one vehicle. Residents contribute an annual maintenance charge for the ongoing care and maintenance of the communal grounds and gardens.
