Description^
We are delighted to offer for sale this beautifully presented three bedroom duplex residence, situated within a stunning granite category C listed building that has been sympathetically renovated to offer modern living in the heart of the city.
The former Mile End Primary School now hosts some of the most desirable apartments, offering executive living with immaculate communal areas, professionally landscaped gardens and private parking.
Upon entering the building the tall, handsome entrance opens onto the main hallway which in turn leads to an impressive, formal central space adorned with a 20m high glazed atrium, served by a glass walled lift and main staircase. The roof lights capture and draw light into the upper walkways. This important historical space is further enhanced with bespoke lighting. No 44 is located on the ground floor via a security entry system.
Attention to detail and exquisite taste is abundant as you enter the property. Early viewing is essential to really appreciate the level of accommodation on offer. The welcoming hallway has a generous built in storage cupboard below the stairs, which houses the heat exchange unit and washing machine, while still having room for additional storage space. Double doors open into a useful study area, with an alcove being the perfect spot for shelving. The electric meter is located behind a door in the study.
The luxury kitchen is set on semi- open-plan layout to the lounge and features modern handleless cabinets and quality SMEG integrated appliances. A striking granite worksurface provides a high quality finish, with there being ample space for a dining table and chairs, creating an enviable social and entertaining space. A large glass pane above the sink gives views towards the lounge and ensures ample natural light fills the room.
Up a few steps from the kitchen, the lounge has double height ceilings and three tall double glazed windows allows for garden views to be enjoyed at every angle. With crisp white walls and quality wooden flooring, this room has a sleek and modern finish while still being sympathetic to the original features of the building. There is ample space for a variety of free standing furniture.
A spacious bathroom fitted with a contemporary white suite is located on the ground floor, fitted to a high standard with a WC and concealed cistern, wash hand basin inset with large mirror behind. The double bath also has a shower overhead and striking aqua panelling behind. A ladder style towel rail, concealed storage above the WC and ceiling spotlights complete the look.
The third bedroom is also located on the ground floor and boasts a spacious built-in wardrobe. This room could equally serve as an excellent dining room or second sitting area if required, enhancing the versatility of the accommodation on offer.
On the upper level there are two expansive double bedrooms. Both feature a range of fully fitted wardrobes with superb shelving and hanging rails and both are enhanced by stylish ensuite shower rooms which have contemporary sanitary ware and chrome fittings.
The communal areas are immaculately maintained under a factoring arrangement, with the ground floor properties not required to contribute towards lift maintenance. Within the private car parking area there are two allocated spaces.
