A staircase takes you from the ground to second floor where you will be welcomed by a bright and airy open-plan living space with a Juliet balcony to admire Derwent Street whilst sipping your morning coffee. Stock up the cupboards in the fully-equipped kitchen area with an electric oven and hob, dishwasher and washing machine, alongside dining seating for four; a lovely spot to tuck into a romantic dinner for two or a takeaway after busy days!
