The Gables is a large Victorian mansion house which has recently undergone a major refurbishment. Whilst the owners have endeavoured to retain as many original external features as possible, the inside of the building, in particular the apartments themselves, have undergone a major architectural redesign in order to create the ultimate in contemporary living. Skilled interior designers have continued the contemporary theme with their use of luxury furnishings and fittings.
The apartments are fitted with designer kitchens which include ceramic touch control hobs, stainless steel ovens and fashionable stainless steel and glass extractor hoods. The bathrooms have ceramic tiled walls and floors and include state of the art glass and chrome sinks, power showers, halogen down lighters and chrome designer radiators. Wood and wood laminate flooring has been used in all the lounges in order to achieve a minimalist look; this is complimented by the use of stylish leather sofas.
The apartments all benefit from the latest gas central heating systems which have been installed with comfort and economy in mind. Double glazed windows and insulated floors and walls will ensure that the coldest winters are kept at bay, whilst avoiding excessive fuel bills.
Each apartment is fitted with a video/audio door entry intercom system. Further security features include code protected burglar alarms and external security lighting. The building complies with all fire safety regulations and a full fire alarm and emergency lighting system is fitted. Each flat is fitted with both terrestrial TV and cable TV connections and there are two broadband enabled telephone connections available, Virgin (cable) and BT.
There is parking available for residents within the grounds of the building and this is accessed via an electrically operated gate; there is also a communal garden area at the rear. Residents of Ainsdale and Belvidere apartments on the ground floor have their own private garden areas. The Belvidere apartment has 2 bedrooms (one with en-suite bathroom); all the other apartments have one bedroom.
The use of chrome and glass in the bathrooms, the Italian ceramic tiled walls and floors, the wood and wood laminate flooring and the creative lighting design all help to project an image of unabashed luxury and an internal inspection is vital in order to fully appreciate the five star accommodation on offer in these stylish contemporary apartments.
