Living area
Looking like a feature from a fashion magazine, the open plan living area is light, bright and spacious. A modern corner sofa in shades of pebble grey seats six and curls around a contemporary coffee table under which sits a large stylish rug. The lounge area is completed with a light wood bureau on which rests a 55 inch smart TV. The walls of the room are a brilliant white and the glass balustraded staircase leading to the mezzanine adds a crisp contemporary ambience which is balanced by the various object d’art that have been strategically placed to enhance the feeling of wellness and relaxation.
There is air con throughout the apartment so that guests are not troubled by the heat in Nice’s summer months.
Kitchen and Dining
In true penthouse style, the kitchen and dining area are all part of the open plan living area with the standout feature being the rustic wooden dining table with seating for six being made up of four wooden dining chairs painted a verdant green plus a wooden bench that sits a maximum of three should it be required.
The kitchen area has a strong modern vibe displaying a large bank of stylish petrol blue units, balanced with light natural wood units at head height and boasts all the equipment and mod cons a person would expect from cooking area of such high standard. The necessities of an oven, grill, microwave, fridge freezer, dishwasher and hob sit next to more luxurious items like the Phillips coffee maker, translucent Tefal kettle and the Phillips double slice toaster.
Bedrooms
The master bedroom is light and bright with a comfortable king size bed and wooden bureau. The fitted double wardrobe is mirrored and provides plenty of storage space. Again, the white walls, featured ornaments and splash of colour from the red cushions and throw generate a clean, crisp ambience that permeates throughout the apartment.
The second bedroom is a little more unique and can be found on the mezzanine level, which is closed off from the open plan living area below by opaque glass walls. There is again a king-size bed and stylish modern chair and desk, but it is the glass door to the bedroom and the steel beams across the roof that really add an industrial penthouse vibe.
There is a bank of storage cupboards in the bedroom and a skylight plus an ensuite bathroom which can be found behind a convenient sliding door.
*Please note that the mezzanine bedroom has a slanted roof and may not be suitable for taller guests.
Bathrooms
The downstairs bathroom provides a tiled shower, toilet, sink and mirror whilst the ensuite bathroom upstairs provides a toilet, large walk-in rain shower and double sized contemporary sink unit with large mirror and heated towel rail.
