Bamford House forms part of the original Victorian barracks, once home to the Royal Marine Artillery until 1923, and occupies a highly sought-after position within this historic and prestigious setting. The wider Marine Gate development is a picturesque private estate, renowned for its beautifully maintained grounds, impressive Grade II listed buildings and thoughtfully designed sympathetic additions. This impressive apartment offers generous and well-balanced accommodation, ideal for buyers seeking the security and convenience of apartment living without sacrificing space, character or elegance.
Large windows frame delightful views across the manicured communal lawns, open spaces and tennis court, creating a light and airy atmosphere throughout. The internal accommodation is both spacious and well arranged, comprising a superb drawing room with arched opening to a separate dining room, a fitted kitchen, utility/cloakroom, a principal bedroom with en-suite bathroom, two further well-proportioned double bedrooms and a separate family bathroom. The property further benefits from a garage in a nearby block, ample residents and visitor parking bays, and enjoys access to the immaculately landscaped communal grounds and residents’ tennis court.
