WE LOVE THIS IMMACULATELY PRESENTED FIRST FLOOR APARTMENT WITH A VIEW OF THE RIVER DERWENT!!

and it even comes with a courtyard garden!

Pleasantly situated on Crown Street the focus just has to be from the rear where the Juliette balcony from the lounge overlooks the River Derwent, as does the kitchen, and there are steps down to an enclosed paved garden with a view of the river and park beyond.

There are two spacious double bedrooms, and a lovely lounge with a modern kitchen off and a pleasant bathroom too. Parking is on the street, subject to a permit. Within easy reach of the town centre with a fantastic range of shops, eateries, bars etc, it's also handy for leisurely walks the park.

THIS WON'T BE AROUND FOR LONG!
