This gem offers three separate large terraces with breathtaking views. The living room/dining room boasts a wall of windows onto a 25 ft terrace facing the magnificent St Jean Baptiste Cathedral. With its beautiful lit up copper dome, marble facade with carved angels and oversized wooden doors reminiscent of the churches you see on the streets of Paris. Throughout the day, the apartment is flooded with Eastern light that begins with magical sunrises and ends with red tinted clouds at sunset. If you're looking for those enchanting views, look no further as from every window, you'll be touched by the beauty that surrounds this residence. There is an open kitchen that is separated from the dining room by a restaurant grade stainless steel counter with bar stools. All new stainless steel appliances, including a washer and dryer controlled by a smart phone and ample white cabinetry to hold your kitchen needs. Right off the kitchen is the door to the second large terrace where you can have a lovely herb garden with a cafe table and chairs for al fresco dining. Collectively these 2 terraces have space for multiple lounge chairs, large dining table with chairs, benches and large plants all around for your indoor/outdoor living. The generous master bedroom situated next to the third terrace, set as a serene space with plants and a small sculpture, visible through a bank of bedroom windows. This bedroom has a large closet with plentiful drawers, space to hang clothes, as well as a second smaller closet with spacious shelves. There are new hardwood floors throughout this residence. The second bedroom/office is located adjacent to the living room, has extensive built-in shelving/storage space and has room for a bed, desk and chair as well as an industrial looking frosted glass sliding door indicative of a true loft.
