Situated in the village of Howells Mere, this professionally designed 3 x bedroom first floor apartment offers stunning views of Swillbrook Lake and Nature Reserve beyond. Sitting on the banks of a Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI), this results in the most glorious of uninterrupted views and spectacle of resident birds and wildlife – from families of swans, moorhens, coots, and otters, the lake also has a visiting family of osprey in a quiet corner. The large private balcony is covered and is a space to be utilised during any point of the day. This private and secure balustraded area is large enough to house both a separate outdoor dining space for 6 – 8 people, plus a comfy sofa and chairs to enjoy your morning breakfast or fresh coffee. However, it is late afternoon when the balcony really comes alive - providing the perfect spot from which to sit back and relax with family and friends, when finally, the sun drops below the horizon having given you the most stunning of sunset.
