Cleverly designed and filled with natural light, this stylish split-level apartment in the "Soqué Apartments" complex offers an easy blend of comfort, practicality, and low-maintenance living in a vibrant city-fringe setting. The open-plan living and dining area is the natural heart of the home, where glass doors draw in the northern sun and capture the warmth of the day. It's a space that feels bright and inviting, perfect for relaxing with a coffee, enjoying the afternoon breeze, or gathering with friends. A split-system air conditioner ensures comfort year-round, while an eco-fireplace built into the kitchen bench adds warmth and ambience to the space. The adjoining kitchen is sleek and modern, finished with Caesarstone benches and a European laundry tucked neatly to the side, while electric blinds add a touch of everyday luxury. The floorplan has been cleverly considered, with a versatile nook beneath the staircase offering just the right spot for a work-from-home space or extra storage. The lower floor is completed by a second bedroom with a built-in robe, positioned alongside the main bathroom where a shower-bath, mirrored cabinetry and a linen cupboard provide both comfort and practicality. Upstairs, the main bedroom feels like its own sanctuary. Framed by soaring ceilings and large windows, it is bathed in natural light throughout the day, creating a sense of openness and calm. Split-system air conditioning, a built-in robe and private ensuite complete the picture, offering a beautifully functional retreat away from the flow of everyday living. Practical features like secure internal parking are paired with the lifestyle advantages of Islington's thriving café and dining scene right on your doorstep, and easy links into the city and harbour. Bright, versatile and ready to enjoy, this apartment captures the ease of modern living in one of Newcastle's most dynamic locations, making it an ideal choice for first home buyers, investors or downsizers alike.
