This exquisitely presented apartment forms part of the original Victorian building on the Fairfield estate. Positioned in 100 acres of beautiful grounds, the apartment offers an impressive amount of thoughtfully designed living space set over two floors.
As soon as you step into the grand entrance hall, you immediately realise just how special this property is. With its high ceilings and enviable proportions, one of the first things that strikes you is how wonderfully bright and airy the space feels, but also its character features, notably the original stone-mullioned windows. No detail has been missed, from the period blue shade of the walls to the warm wooden flooring, and even the decorative radiator covers.
Leading off from the entrance hall is a recently refurbished kitchen. Fitted with bespoke cabinetry in an elegant shade of blue, sleek Quartz work surfaces and splashback also neutral floor tiles, the kitchen has a classic yet contemporary feel. The cream range cooker and butlers sink provide a nod to the apartment’s heritage, while the chrome sockets and vertical radiator introduce contemporary finishes, and integrated appliances include a fridge-freezer, wine-fridge and dishwasher. A window seat provides the perfect spot to sit and enjoy a freshly brewed coffee or evening glass of wine and enjoy the view.
The generously proportioned sitting/dining room is decorated in a rich olive green with a neutral carpet and benefits from a vast window which floods the space with natural light. The windows also feature the property’s original oak shutters, which remain in full working order and are regularly used, adding both character and practicality to this elegant room. The focal point is a large ornate fireplace which fits beautifully with the room’s generous proportions. The space can be configured to suit your own requirements, with ample room for a couple of comfy sofas as well as a dining table and chairs, making it ideal for relaxing with the family or entertaining friends. Completing the ground floor is a handy cloakroom.
The bedrooms are located on the lower ground floor, which is accessed via an attractive staircase, finished in a deep navy and featuring a neutral stair runner. The lower ground hall features the same classic shade of blue as the upstairs and has a complementing neutral carpet.
The main bedroom is incredibly spacious and provides the perfect sanctuary to retreat to at the end of a busy day. Decorated in a calming colour palette of soft pink and olive green, the bedroom features built-in storage with plenty of space for additional furniture. The large ensuite shower room features a classic white suite, including a large shower, and tiling in a neutral tone. The second bedroom is also generously proportioned and airy, with wooden flooring, crisp white walls, and fitted wardrobes in a contemporary style. The third bedroom is another comfortable double which would also make a superb home office. Also featuring fitted wardrobes and a neutral colour scheme, the room has the unusual additional feature of a striking Victorian cast-iron range.
The family bathroom completes the lower ground floor. Classically styled, the room features a large corner bath, shower and white sanitaryware. White wall tiles contrast with the geometric-pattern flooring and botanical wallpaper, to create an inviting space.
With its generous proportions, enviable interior and desirable location, the apartment presents a wonderful opportunity for anyone seeking a unique property within Fairfield Park.

“I can recommend the services of Wellington Evans unreservedly and without hesitation. James was consistently responsive, proactive and professional whilst also very personable. To us as purchasers, James felt like an honest broker between ourselves and the vendor. He worked brilliantly well with our solicitor, Elite Conveyancing, and the vendor, navigating a number of bumps along the road to achieve our completed transaction in around 2 months from initial viewing.”
Elaine Baker, House Purchase in ApostlesFebruary 2024
“I used Wellington Evans to sell a property, they went above and beyond for what was a complicated process at times. We had used a different agency previously, and not had much interest. When WE came in, we made a plan to refresh the property and marketing approach which saw many more viewers and an offer. James was great at helping me figure out the next best move and the advice they gave from start to finish was excellent. Lovely, supportive and involved team, who I wouldn't hesitate to recommend and use again myself.”
Vicky, House Sale in QuadrantMarch 2024
“Best estate agent we’ve ever had. We went on a bit of a journey with our house and Nick was always positive, pro-active and completely open with us along the way. He and James are vastly experienced but their modern approach sets them apart. You can tell they really care about what they do. It’s not just about selling houses, it’s about helping people move home and doing what’s best for the situation. If you want an estate agent that’s in your corner, we’d recommend Nick and Wellington Evans in a heartbeat.”
