Forbes Court, Newport

This is a welcoming home from the moment you enter. The communal areas are perfectly kept, including the garden which is maintained regularly by gardeners. Head up the staircase to the top floor where you'll find the apartment, all ready to move into. The door opens into the hall with space to dump your bag and pop your coat too. The heart of this fabulous home is undoubtedly the cool open-plan living space. There's plenty of space for a dining table and chairs where you can sit and chat with family and friends with a lovely view onto the woodlands of Llanwern. Light floods into the room which is framed by beautifully large glass Juliet balcony doors. We can't help but think of all the movie nights we'll have whilst watching the night sky from the comfort of the sofa, and with help from the strategically placed spotlights, this open plan design becomes even more attractive. In the white kitchen, the cabinetry sets the modern vibe and is fitting for the location. This room is perfectly equipped to knock up a Master Chef-inspired dinner for one or two or ideal for reheating some pizza on a Sunday morning.

Along the corridor, you come across the spacious main bedroom with plenty of space for king size bed and plenty of wardrobe and drawer storage, and newly fitted carpets (which can be spotted throughout). After a hard day at work, the en suite will feel like a sanctuary. Next is the second bedroom which is well proportioned, and has similar great views to the living room. A bathroom is a great place for a pampering session; choose either the surrounding curved bath or the overhead electric shower.

So what else do you need to know? There is space. There is style. You are also very well connected here; in two minutes you're on the motorway and in a little bit more you're in the park. Creating a happy work-life balance will be great here.
