The Studio
Perfect for two, this stunning conversion brings together the understated elegance of Scandi design which embraces warmth and light in equal measure.
Think the warming glow of a real fire, natural textures, and spirit-lifting views and you begin to get the feel for this space.
Set across one floor, a key feature of the living area is the lofty bi-folding doors which extend across the south-facing aspect and bounce natural light through the room.
This is enhanced by a soft, chalky colour scheme from Farrow & Ball, punctuated with leather and velvet textures, along with salvaged sycamore which has been carefully crafted by a local artisan to create the tactile window ledges. Technology includes a Smart TV and a high spec integrated bluetooth speaker system for some relaxation time.
A small island unit divides the living space, while the crisp, contemporary lines of the kitchen is equipped with all the main essentials, including a Nespresso machine for that first morning coffee.
Finally the bedroom with en-suite bathroom draws on deeper hues to create warmth and comfort, carefully designed using a scheme of moody blues and misty greys, along with artworks from Jane Lannagan.
Outside, the property benefits from a large lawned garden and patio where you can soak in the views while dining al fresco.
