Archives: Flat - Purpose Built

Summary:
This stunning two bedroom, two bathroom apartment is one of just eleven luxury homes skilfully created at Beecholme. Originally the Queen Victoria Memorial Hospital, built at the turn of the century, Beecholme served the local community in its original form for decades and is a prominent building in the area enjoying a rich and fascinating history. Converted to 7 flats in 1953 and developed into 11 private apartments in 2022 by the owner developer, with immaculate quality of materials and workmanship, as well as, an attention to detail that embraces the most modern building techniques and styling, whilst still celebrating the history and authentic appeal of the original building. This apartment represents a rare and valuable opportunity to acquire a prestigious home in a fabulous location. The impeccable quality of the apartment is echoed throughout, with features such as hardwood floors in the bedrooms and living areas, underfloor heating, acoustic double glazing and porcelain tiled walls and floors in both shower rooms. This glorious apartment ticks all the boxes in terms of modern living, yet retains the architectural interest and splendour of the “country manor” style of the original building with high ceilings and wonderful complex roof shapes.

Accommodation:
The attractive main entrance to the building leads into a lovely hallway and stairs taking you up to the apartment, which is found on the first floor. Inside the solid oak front door an impressive hallway runs back through the apartment, with doors leading to the two bedrooms and a conveniently placed guest cloakroom/family shower room, along with a door that leads into the fabulous open plan sitting room/dining room/kitchen.

Summary:

Bryan Bishop and Partners are delighted to bring to the market this delightful two double bedroom ground floor apartment in the extremely popular Oaklands area of Welwyn. This lovely home is part of a premium development built to the very highest standards, with just a select few residences within the building and enjoys direct access out into the garden and reserved private parking to the rear.

Accommodation:

The communal entrance is set within a modern, stylish frontage to the building with plenty of kerb appeal. Within the entrance hall the apartment’s front door welcomes you into its own spacious hallway, boasting two extremely useful storage cupboards. The hallway extends through the apartment, leading to both bedrooms, the generous kitchen/dining/living room and the modern bathroom.

The main living space is fabulous, and a really practical room of perfect proportions. At nearly eighteen feet long and fourteen feet wide it has ample space for you to configure and furnish it any way you wish, and is wonderfully well lit by two windows and a set of fully glazed doors looking out onto the front garden. A neat recessed area has been fully fitted with abundant wall and floor mounted cupboards to give you substantial storage space, as well as incorporating a full array of integrated appliances. There is also ample opportunity to add in a breakfast bar should you desire it. The remainder of the room is left as open floor space and is comfortably capacious enough for a dining table and chairs along with a large lounge suite of furniture. The double doors opening outside are a great asset, giving ready access out into the garden space as well as allowing an uninhibited flow of fresh air into the apartment on warm days.

Both bedrooms are doubles, with the larger of the two having a full wall of fitted wardrobes.
