Description:
A showpiece two bedroom penthouse apartment with fantastic views from the top of the historic Priory. Spacious layout, large sitting room, sunny dining hall, kitchen/breakfast room, 2 double bedrooms, master en suite, far reaching views, outstanding communal facilities.
SITUATION
Number 22 sits at the top of the prestigious main building in the historic Priory with outstanding southerly views over the surrounding countryside. The Priory is set within 5 acres of communal gardens and grounds and features 43 cottages and apartments, centred around a magnificent listed Victorian Priory, which houses extensive leisure and social facilities. Purchasing a property at the Priory is akin to buying a slice of English Heritage, as the main Abbotsleigh house dates back to 1848 and features remarkable design and architecture.
DESCRIPTION
This penthouse apartment is larger than most, as it measures over 1700 square feet, and sits up a flight of stairs from the lift access on the first floor in the main Priory building. From a shared landing with the adjacent property, Number 22 is entered through a small porch and then through the front door to the main entrance hall. Bedrooms 1 and 2 sit either side of the entrance hall, along with the family bathroom and airing cupboard. The master bedroom has been updated in recent years with an elegant en-suite shower room and bedroom 2 has a useful run of fitted wardrobes. The spacious sitting room is dual aspect as it looks over the front lawns and surrounding countryside and also the courtyard gardens on the north side. A wide archway leads into the dining hall with high level dormer windows to the north and cleverly fitted long Velux windows over the southern elevation. The hall continues through to the kitchen/breakfast room, also fitted with Velux lights, making this a light and airy room. The kitchen is fitted with matching base and wall units with a timber edge work surface, electric integrated appliances to include a 4-ring hob, electric oven and dishwasher. There is space and plumbing for a washing machine and plenty of room for a breakfast table.
