There is excellent storage with two large walk-in cupboards in the hallway - one accommodating the hot water tank and washing machine but still having buckets of room for all those necessary household aids.

Access to the building is via a telecom system with lift and stairs to the apartment.  There is one allocated parking space in the secure underground car park.  And, as an added bonus,  to enjoy the summer sunshine you have the option of two communal roof terraces to choose from.
