From the stunning communal entrance hall, complete with
concierge desk, 102 is situated on the first floor accessed via an
elegant sweeping staircase, or from the whisper quiet lift located
almost the apartment‘s front door.
Immediately on entering the property, the fabulous ceiling
height is apparent, and the principle rooms are flooded with
natural light from its westerly orientation.
The welcoming entrance hall has oak flooring and, via glazed
double doors complete with period fanlight above, opens into an
elegant and beautifully proportioned reception room.

and a wonderful, original marble fireplace with cast iron insert
and a slate hearth. There is plenty of room for a dining table and
chairs and with a ceiling height of over 15‘, this room has a
fabulous feeling of space with views out over the private terrace
towards Brunel‘s Suspension bridge.
The ceiling is rich in period detail, picked out by bespoke
lighting illuminating the recessed cornice work. The terrace is
accessed by one of the three sash windows, really bringing the
outside in and making it the perfect spot for a lunch or evening
sun downer watching the sunset over the bridge beyond.

Devizes Kitchen, again flooded with light from a double height sash
window. The oak cabinets, with granite worktops, provide plenty of
storage and the kitchen is completed by an integrated washer dryer,

with a four ring ceramic hob.
