The spacious lounge/dining room forms the principal reception space and is a particularly appealing feature of the home. Positioned to the eastern elevation, the room enjoys a sunny aspect and views overlooking Alum Chine, creating a wonderfully light and open environment. The generous proportions lend themselves equally well to relaxed everyday living and entertaining. The modern kitchen is centrally positioned and thoughtfully arranged with a range of wall and base-mounted units, work surfaces over and space and plumbing for freestanding appliances. The apartment's distinctive and versatile layout provides excellent separation between the bedrooms.
