"A stylish ground-floor apartment in a Grade II Listed building with communal gardens and parking"
The Property
Set within Burn Brae House, this vibrant two-bedroom ground floor apartment offers comfortable living in an impressive period building. Part of a Grade II Listed property with tasteful contemporary additions and situated near Sele Park, just a short level walk from the town centre, the apartment provides easy living in a bustling market town.
The apartment is accessed via a shared entrance, where the spacious atrium serves as a welcoming communal area. Apartment 4 itself has been thoughtfully styled, featuring rich, enduring decor that complements the building’s features. The open-plan kitchen and living area is a highlight, with bespoke forest green cabinetry by Premier Kitchens, granite worktops, and light fittings by Jim Lawrence. The living area features a large window with original shutters, maintaining privacy while creating a bright and airy atmosphere. Throughout the apartment, wooden floors, Georgian/Victorian-style panelled doors and decorative elements give the interior a cohesive and inviting feel.
The property offers two spacious double bedrooms, each finished for comfort. The principal bedroom benefits from an en-suite shower room, while the second bedroom is adjacent to a separate main bathroom.
A notable feature of this property is the basement, which, while currently used for storage, presents an opportunity for further development (subject to planning permission). This versatile space could add further value and functionality to the home.
Externally
Outside, the communal areas are well-maintained, providing both practicality and places to relax. The courtyard to the west has been landscaped with lawned areas and flower beds along the original brick wall, where roses, shrubs, and seasonal blooms create an inviting environment. The adjacent St. Mary’s Church offers a picturesque backdrop, adding a point of interest to the surroundings.
The rear entrance, which serves Apartment 4, features a small private seating area framed by roses and a variety of shrubs, providing a pleasant outdoor space to relax.
The property also includes designated parking spaces for Burn Brae House.
