Inside, Plot 1 unfolds across two beautifully considered levels, creating a home that feels both intimate and impressively spacious. The ground floor has been designed as the social heart of the apartment, with a generous open‑plan kitchen, dining and living space stretching to approximately 3.92m by 6.18m. This room balances contemporary elegance with comfort, its German‑designed Wessen kitchen seamlessly integrated with Bosch appliances including oven, hob, dishwasher, washer/dryer and a full‑height fridge freezer. Thin‑profile worktops, soft‑close cabinetry, under‑unit lighting and a stainless‑steel sink with monobloc tap speak to a level of quality rarely seen in affordable homeownership schemes. A discreetly positioned cloakroom completes this floor and enhances the convenience of everyday living.
On the upper level, the private spaces have been shaped with equal attention to detail. The principal bedroom offers generous proportions, creating an inviting sanctuary with room for both restful nights and quiet morning routines. The second bedroom is a superb double, ideal for guests or children.
