This apartment has two double bedrooms, each with built-in wardrobes, and there’s an en suite in the master bedroom too. There’s a family bathroom, plenty of storage and a spacious, open-plan kitchen/dining living room with two large windows. It also comes with allocated parking.

Sales director for Barratt Southern Counties, Lynnette St-Quintin, said: “We have been working hard with conversion specialists to ensure that the original structure and facades are being preserved, while many of the original Art Deco features have also been restored.”

The Chapel Gate development is bringing a whole range of one-, two-, three- and four-bedroom properties to a site just a few minutes’ walk from the station, shops and various leisure facilities. In addition to the restored period building, there are plenty of three- and four-bedroom contemporary houses. Prices here currently range from £189,995 to £431,995.
