Description
Riverside Court sits in a prime, elevated position on the River Dee and the development benefits from superb far-reaching westerly views over the river and the Meadows beyond. The building was developed in the early 1980s and designed to maximise its stunning riverside position. The building offers exceptional views and the seasonal changes to the landscape create a constantly evolving outlook and very much feels like living art. It is a real pleasure to watch the year-round boating activity and to feel part of the vibrant life on the river.
When the current owner purchased the property he subsequently undertook a scheme of refurbishment and renovation, comprehensively modernising the property and in 2018 replacing flooring, heating system, kitchen, bathrooms and replacement windows. The result is stylish and contemporary and designed to complement the outstanding views. The property has the benefit of underfloor heating throughout.
The open-plan living space has a seating area orientated towards the view and opening out onto the spacious balcony which provides a fantastic extension of the entertaining space. The seating area has an attractive living flame gas fire, ceramic tiled wood effect floor (this flooring extends throughout much of the property, creating a seamless flow between the living spaces and offering the warm aesthetic of wood with the durability, water resistance, and easy maintenance of tile). Beyond the seating area is a dining area connected to the kitchen. The American Black Walnut kitchen has a range of wall and base units, integrated appliances to include a Rangemaster gas hob, electric oven, extractor fan, microwave, dishwasher and washing machine. The breakfast bar has base cupboards below.
The principal bedroom is a very bright room with a spectacular view of the river and a patio door out to the balcony. The bedroom has fitted wardrobes and an en suite shower room. Bedroom two, currently used as a study is to the front of the building.
The property comes with a parking space in the secure underground car park and Riverside Court has the benefit of four visitor parking spaces. The parking space is very generous and the owner has previously erected a freestanding storage unit at the rear of the space while still leaving room for a large vehicle to park. The building does have a lift which goes up from the car park.
Riverside Court has fabulous communal gardens which are beautifully maintained and perfect for entertaining guests or simply relaxing on a summer evening. The development has direct river access and there is a pontoon and mooring rights.
