Description

Set within an esteemed historic building, this beautifully renovated three-bedroom residence with two private parking spaces extends over almost 2000 square feet, blending timeless charm with modern sophistication. Recently updated, the apartment radiates elegance and refined design, providing a peaceful oasis hidden behind lush gardens, directly facing the scenic Queen's Park. Complete with a private patio and shared access to a communal garden, it embodies the pinnacle of luxury city living.

Tucked away along a private drive near Queen's Park, this elegant ground-floor apartment is set within a grand villa surrounded by manicured gardens and mature trees. The building, with its striking stucco façade and tall windows, dates back to 1851 and was converted into spacious apartments in the 1980s, offering a luxurious, tranquil lifestyle.

Ideal for professionals and families, the home features a vast open-plan reception room, perfect for entertaining, along with two generously sized king bedrooms. A home office provides space for two, and in summer, gatherings can extend to the private patio and beautifully maintained communal gardens.

Inside, the property showcases refined design with a wide entrance hall, neutral decor, and wood flooring. The versatile living room includes areas for dining, relaxation, and a sleek kitchen with handle-free cabinetry, premium appliances, and a breakfast bar. A large sash window and glazed door open onto the patio, ideal for alfresco dining.

Both bedrooms are spacious and inviting, with soft grey carpets and room for luxurious furnishings. The second bedroom features a walk-in wardrobe and Jack & Jill access to the main bathroom, complete with a wet-room shower and bath. The principal bedroom has a private en suite with a double-width shower and dual basins.
