CANTON: £174,000

What: This property in this popular suburb has the style of a show home but within a one-bedroom apartment.

The metallic crushed velvet sofa offers an inviting spot to relax and absorb the impressive job the current owner has done on turning this cute flat into a mini interior masterpiece.

And it’s all about the colour scheme and choice of finishes.

High shine cream floor tiles and reflective mirror and glass fixtures and fittings bounce light around the space, as well as giving the home a contemporary style.

Even the radiator is a mirror – very handy for re-applying the lipstick without having to get up from that super squishy sofa.

The pale walls and ample accent lighting contribute to the open and airy feel of the property, with particular attention paid to any darker corners being specifically targeted with extra lighting.

In the kitchen, the glossy units and splashbacks continue the reflective theme, joined by the very posh mirror and crystal kitchen light – no fluorescent tube light in here!

Other clever design tricks worth noting within this flat are the open and widened doorways to create an open-plan feel, the frosted glass internal doors to assist in light dispersal and extra recessed, featured lighting.
