Te apartment has a fantastic sense of volume owing to an exposed double-height pitched roof, punctured with high- level windows that bathe the space in light. Te main living areas are positioned on the lower level, while a generous mezzanine provides a dramatic space for the bedroom that has access to a southeast-facing balcony. A half-level up is a smaller, contained space, which can be used as a second bedroom, study or dressing room.

Adjoining the main reception room is a cleverly designed conservatory that the current owner uses as a ceramics studio. Te glazed roof maximises the intake of natural light and provides an additional space that can be contained from the otherwise open-plan living arrangement.
