This sprawling terrace is the perfect stage for watching the sunrise over the city and the sunset over the Gulf, all from the comfort of your own retreat. Inside, the open split-bedroom floor plan offers a sophisticated canvas for your personal vision, inviting you to bring a custom touch to a high-floor interior and tailor the aesthetic to your exact standards.
