The Accommodation


Entrance Porch
A welcoming entrance porch provides a useful transition into the apartment, with built-in cabinetry offering excellent storage for coats, shoes and other everyday belongings. The space creates a natural separation between the outside world and the accommodation beyond.

The Living Space
The principal living area is a particularly appealing feature of the property, arranged as a generous L-shaped open-plan space which lends itself equally well to relaxed evenings and entertaining. The sitting area is finished in crisp neutral tones, complemented by traditional herringbone oak flooring and a wood-burning stove set within an attractive stone fireplace. Bespoke-style built-in cabinetry and shelving provide useful storage while adding character to the room.

Kitchen/Diner
The dining area flows naturally from the sitting room, creating a sociable and versatile space for both everyday dining and entertaining. Beyond this, the kitchen has been thoughtfully fitted with a neutral gloss cabinetry and warm oak worktops, providing ample storage alongside an integral electric oven, gas hob and extractor fan. A ceramic sink with mixer tap sits beneath the neutral finishes, while wood panelling and traditional-style flooring add warmth and texture. A cleverly designed shelving unit provides an attractive and practical solution for frequently used cooking ingredients, while space is also provided for a washing machine.

Inner Hall
The inner hall provides a clear division between the principal living areas and the bedrooms and bathroom beyond. The vendors have made particularly good use of this space, incorporating useful storage together with a traditional-style clothes airer, adding a charming and practical touch to the apartment.

Principal Bedroom
A calm and restful principal bedroom, beautifully finished in soft off-white tones with a light carpet which enhances the sense of space and complements the period character of the property. The generous floor area provides considerable flexibility for freestanding bedroom furniture, creating a comfortable and well-proportioned principal bedroom with a peaceful ambience.

Bedroom Two
The second bedroom is generous enough to function comfortably as a principal bedroom in its own right. With good floor space and attractive neutral décor, the room feels bright and welcoming, while its proportions allow for a variety of uses. It would make an excellent guest bedroom, although the space could equally lend itself to a generous home office or study, depending on the requirements of the next owner.

Bathroom
The bathroom is finished in a clean and understated style, with a panelled bath incorporating an overhead shower and folding glass screen. White wall tiling provides a fresh backdrop, complemented by warmer, earthy tones elsewhere in the room. The suite comprises a WC and pedestal wash basin with useful undersink storage, together with a chrome heated towel rail completing the space.

The External Spaces
One of the property's particularly noteworthy features is its allocated parking space, located beside the rear gate of the apartment. Allocated parking in such a central Totnes location is a valuable and relatively uncommon benefit, adding considerably to the property's practicality. The property also enjoys use of a well-maintained shared garden, providing a pleasant and tranquil outdoor space within easy reach of the apartment. A further benefit is the provision of a outside shed, offering useful additional storage.
