About this property

** One-Bedroom ** Second-Floor Apartment ** Chain Free ** High Street Location **

A particularly appealing opportunity to acquire a one-bedroom second-floor apartment within the delightfully ornate Holyrood Chambers, an impressive Gothic building occupying a prominent position on the High Street and dating back to 1895.

The building itself is a striking example of historic architecture, featuring an exceptionally attractive deep red terracotta and sandstone façade, decorative lions and shields, ornate chimneys, intricate ironwork and stunning stained glass windows.

On entering the apartment, a welcoming hallway provides access to the principal rooms and benefits from two useful built-in storage cupboards.

The generously proportioned open-plan L-shaped living space incorporates a fitted kitchen with a range of base and wall-mounted cabinetry, work surfaces and space and plumbing for appliances. The versatile room provides ample space for both comfortable lounge and dining areas, while a particularly attractive large stained glass bay window floods the room with natural light and provides a striking focal point.

The spacious double bedroom features a traditional sash window, while the modern three-piece bathroom comprises a bath with shower over, wash hand basin and WC.
