The sophisticated marble bathroom has a floating Fresca sink, Grohe shower fixtures, and a Toto toilet, adding to the home’s modern elegance. It is a rare find with a window in the bath.

This apartment’s L-shaped layout has oversized windows from the living area to the bathroom and the spacious bedroom.
