IMPORTANT UPDATE: An Exciting New Look for Christie is Coming!
The owners will be remodeling Christie from January - end of July 2026, transforming it into a two-bedroom apartment.
• The spacious double living/dining room will be
reimagined as a separate living room and a second
bedroom with a queen bed. Thanks to the large windows,
both rooms will be filled with sunlight and enjoy lovely
views of the garden and lane below.
• The dining area will open directly into a newly expanded
kitchen, creating a brighter and more welcoming space
for meals.
• The current bedroom will be updated with two single
beds.
For now, we’re delighted to offer Christie at the one-bedroom price until new photos are ready. We can’t wait to share the refreshed look with you!
