There is lift access to all floors and the apartment is situated on the second floor to the rear of the block which provides for a great vista on the gardens and surrounding area, with fields and woodland in the distance. Situated on the Stapleford/Bramcote border, there is a useful parade of shops adjacent to the building, including Co-Op, and there is a regular bus service.
