The Property
An exquisite maisonette two-bedroom apartment, situated on the second floor (with lift access) of this historic landmark building, covering 1,008 sq. ft. of floor space and arranged over two floors.
The apartment is cool, calm and contemporary with lime washed oak floors in the entrance hall, reception room and kitchen as well as high quality grey carpet on the stairs, landing and in the bedrooms.
Adjacent to the entrance hall is the fabulous reception room, with double height ceilings naturally lit by two large sash windows overlooking The General's courtyard and fountain. It is a wonderfully comfortable place to relax and unwind, or to entertain in style, adjacent as it is to the kitchen.
The kitchen itself is modern and beautifully appointed with a sleek expanse of work-surface and plenty of floor/wall mounted storage cupboards. There are a range of Neff integrated appliances including an oven, grill and ceramic hob as well as an integrated full height fridge/freezer, dishwasher, washer/dryer & in-sink waste disposal.
To the opposite side of the entrance hall is the well proportioned second bedroom, again with views over the courtyard and complete with Hammonds fitted furniture providing a dressing table or desk. This room has private access to a study, benefitting from fitted office furniture, storage area under the stairs and a sash window.
The lower floor is served by a stylish fully tiled bathroom, complete with a three piece white suite with a thermostatic shower above the bath, w.c. wash basin and a wall-mounted heated towel ladder.
Without doubt however, the master bedroom is the real show-stopper, perched above the reception room on its own mezzanine level. The bedroom is effortlessly cosy, yet still beautifully proportioned complete with Hammonds fitted wardrobes providing plenty of storage.
Accessed from the galleried landing leading from the bedroom is a luxury en-suite shower room, complete with a walk-in shower, w.c, and his & hers sinks.
Outside
The General is approached via a well-maintained and striking entrance courtyard, complete with the original carved stone fountain. All the residents enjoy the benefit of a Concierge service with a dedicated estate office, a Michelin Star restaurant, personal trainer and gym all located within the building.
The apartment has an allocated underground parking space on the first underground level including lift access. There is also a secure bike store.
