Description

This apartment is positioned on the third floor of the southern elevation and measuring approximately 5,055 sq ft /470 sq m, is the largest single floor residence in the entire development.

The principal bedroom suite is beautifully impressive with both his & hers bathrooms and a walk-in dressing room and the further accommodation consists of four guest/ family double bedroom suites, a study, guest cloakroom and utility room.
