Property description

* STUNNING PENTHOUSE APARTMENT WITH BALCONY TO REAR and 3-CAR PARKING * A marvellous opportunity to acquire a spacious luxury contemporary-style penthouse apartment with a definite \"wow factor\" - close to the heart of the town centre. The stylish well-proportioned two-bedroomed accommodation benefits from an open plan lounge/dining area/kitchen measuring approx 26'8\" by 24'3\", two good-sized bedrooms (one with en suite shower room and the other having a walk-in dressing room), a reception hall and a bathroom. In addition, there's a top floor balcony to the rear which enjoys the afternoon and evening sun, and allocated off-road parking for three cars reached via security gates at the entrance to the rear car park.

THE LOCATION -
The ancient, historic market town of Ashby (with its famous 15th century castle) almost certainly dates back to Roman times. Later, in the early 19th century, it became a spa town. Many of the Georgian style buildings that you now see were built to accommodate visitors to the Baths. Today, Ashby de la Zouch is a thriving and bustling town within the National Forest and enjoys a wide range of good shops, schools, pubs, churches and local amenities. The nearby M42 motorway gives easy access to the M1 and M6 and many other Midland towns and cities. The town is also convenient for the Nottingham East Midlands airport.

THE SPACIOUS LUXURY PENTHOUSE -
A marvellous opportunity to acquire a spacious luxury contemporary-style penthouse apartment close to the heart of the town centre. The well-proportioned and stylish two-bedroomed accommodation benefits from an open plan lounge/dining area/kitchen measuring approx 26'8\" by 24'3\", two good-sized bedrooms (one with ensuite), a reception hall and a bathroom. In addition, there's a top floor balcony to the rear which enjoys the afternoon and evening sun, and allocated off road parking for three cars reached via security gates at the entrance to the rear car park. Constructed in 2003 to a high specification, the apartment incorporates several upgrades instigated by the present owner, including: quality wood flooring throughout, a comprehensive range of integrated kitchen appliances and stainless steel Neff ceramic hob with electric oven, remote controlled Velux skylight windows which automatically close in the event of rain, and natural daylight tubes in the ceiling - adding a light and airy feeling to the accommodation. Internal inspection absolutely essential!
