Description
8 Aberdeen Square is an impressive contemporary end-of-terrace townhouse, recently refurbished throughout by the current owners to an exacting standard. Constructed with buff brick elevations and high-specification double-glazed windows and doors, the house extends to approximately 2,660 sq ft arranged across three floors. It enjoys a private south-facing roof terrace on the first floor and a further terrace accessed from a bedroom adjoining the principal suite on the top floor, both of which have been newly refurbished by the current owners with hard-wearing composite Millboard flooring (with 25 year guarantee).
The ground floor centres around a superb kitchen and family room, completely refitted with sleek cabinetry, quartz work surfaces, and a full suite of new integrated appliances including Miele oven, microwave, combi oven and warming drawer, complimented by a Quooker five way tap.

A utility room provides space for laundry, together with a separate WC, and at the rear of the house a large integral garage comfortably accommodates two cars with further storage if required.
On the first floor, a dual-aspect open-plan sitting and family room opens through wide sliding doors to a newly refurbished decked terrace, perfectly positioned to capture views across the square to the south. Two further bedrooms are served by a stylish family bathroom.
The top floor is home to the principal suite, a spacious retreat with a vanity unit, a bank of fitted wardrobes, a large south-facing picture window, and a large en suite shower room, which features twin sinks, a separate shower cubicle and storage cupboards. There are two further bedrooms, one of which benefits from an new en suite shower room and the other gives direct access onto the top floor terrace.
The house has the benefit of PV system paired with a battery storage unit, allowing energy to be retained for later use.
