About this property

Situated within the popular Wellington Court development, this well-presented first floor apartment offers generous and versatile living space and benefits from an extended lease (approximately 103 years remaining), providing added long-term security and value.

Uniquely, the apartment was originally designed as a two-bedroom property, meaning it now offers a far more generous floor area than a typical one-bedroom apartment. This allows for flexible living, with a spacious lounge, defined dining or study area, and a well-proportioned double bedroom, making it ideal for those seeking extra internal space.
