Park up in the large driveway before heading into this deceptively spacious, ground floor apartment. You will be immediately welcomed by a bright and airy open plan longer/diner/kitchen.

Cook up a storm for breakfast and dinner or prepare picnics in the lovely, stylish kitchen which has a handy breakfast bar so you can socialise together as the chef cooks. A country style dining table provides a space where you can eat together or play a board game.

After dinner, get competitive over a game of pool on the pool table, or sit back and relax on the comfortable sofa and flick on the Smart TV. When you are ready for some shuteye, head through to one of the two bedrooms.

The sumptuous master bedroom contains a king-size bed and boasts a beautiful free-standing copper bath where you can soak away the day. The other bedroom has twin zip-and-link beds.

Both bedrooms have en-suite shower rooms. The outside area is a real showstopper.
