This modern, well-presented apartment is situated on the first floor of an exclusive development, set within beautifully manicured grounds. It is conveniently located in the sought-after village of Compton, highly regarded because of its proximity to the city and station, and because it has such an active community.

The property is spacious at approximately 800 sq ft and offers well-planned accommodation throughout. The hallway leads firstly to the principal bedroom, which is an excellent size, and has the benefit of built-in storage and a good en-suite shower room. Bedroom two at the end of the hallway is also a double and has use of the adjacent family bathroom with bath and shower over.

The heart of the apartment is the superb sitting room which is triple aspect, allowing for plenty of natural light. French doors open out onto a private patio/sun terrace which is a real highlight of this property and enjoys views over the lovely communal grounds. A smart fitted kitchen leads off the sitting room, with ample base and eye level units and integrated appliances including double oven, hob, extractor, dishwasher and fridge/freezer.

The property has an allocated car port parking space, with plenty of further visitor parking available. The beautiful communal gardens are mainly laid to lawn with many mature trees and hedging.
