This unusually large and luxurious, exquisitely decorated, and perfectly located modern French-style apartment offers spaciousness, comfort, distinction and safety for your trip.

It is located in a small luxury building with 24-hour manned security on Avenida Callao, one of BA's emblematic avenues, in the city's most desirable neighborhood, Recoleta. Within a half-dozen short blocks from the apartment are the best shopping (Patio Bullrich, Avenida Alvear, most of Recoleta's boutiques), all of BA's grandest hotels (Alvear Palace, Four Seasons, Palacio Duhau-Park Hyatt), Recoleta Cemetery, Recoleta Village cinema, and several of BA's most beautiful urban parks. The immediate area abounds in cafes, bakeries, neighborhood restaurants, supermarkets, and all types of specialized food markets and fresh fruit and vegetable stands.

The apartment occupies an entire floor. There's a private vestibule off the main elevator before the front entrance of the apartment, and a separate service elevator and entrance for deliveries.

Although the apartment is modern, the old French style of Buenos Aires is present throughout: deep crown molding in all rooms and hallways; richly patterned hardwood flooring in the living room, dining room and all hallways; wide, molded, dark wood baseboards; detailed picture-frame molding on all doors (even the closets and kitchen pantries).

This ULTRA LUXURY apartment has been lovingly and carefully decorated for private use, with a mixture of antique and modern furnishings, nearly two dozen oriental rugs, authentic tapestries, and original art throughout. It perfectly melds the elegance and sophisticated taste of the Buenos Aires of yesterday with the modern design and comfort of the BA of today. The owner is an artist, and much of the original art in the apartment is hers. The furniture and furnishings include many pieces made by local artisans or handed down as heirlooms, effortlessly integrated with touches of the most modern (e.g., ultra-modern black leather Italian chairs matched to a glass-topped dining table with a fine-grained Biedermeier revival base).

The apartment has two completely distinct areas. In the front, facing Avenida Callao, are the entrance hallway, powder room, living room and formal dining room (with a sitting area separating them), kitchen and breakfast room, and laundry room. From this front area, a hallway of nearly 30 meters (nearly 100 feet), broken half-way by a wide, light-filled sitting area, leads to the rear, which overlooks gardens. Here are found two full bedroom suites, a third full bath, and a paneled library, all opening off a central distribution hallway.

Absolute peace and quiet reigns in the rear where the bedroom suites are located, allowing everyone to sleep as if in the country. This is a rare luxury in a noisy city like BA.

Each bedroom suite has a large bedroom with queen-sized bed and two bedside night tables, a separate dressing room with extensive closets and built-in shelving and drawers behind doors, and a full bath with glass enclosure for the tub and shower. The larger suite also has a spacious sitting room with even more closets and built-ins, and a double vanity in the bath. Bed and bath linens are ample and high quality.

In addition to two elegant wooden desks (one built-in) and a full wall of bookcases, the library has a sofa bed that will sleep two people, who could easily use the third full bath, which opens off the central hallway two steps away from the door to the library. They would enjoy complete privacy, since the two bedroom suites can be closed off by shutting their entry door to the central hallway.

The floors of the bedrooms, dressing rooms, and library are quality wall-to-wall carpeting topped with half a dozen oriental rugs, for maximum comfort and quiet.

Balconies running the width of the building overlook Avenida Callao in the front and the gardens in the back. Glass French-style double doors lead onto the respective balconies from the living room, dining room, and both bedrooms. The front balcony provides spectacular views of the architecture of Avenida Callao, and the lively avenue itself, all the way to Avenida Alvear in one direction and to Avenida Santa Fe in the other. The rear balcony is perfect for quiet early morning or late afternoon moments with nature.

The extremely spacious, bright kitchen is white with chrome finishings, granite countertops, track lighting and under-cabinet, counter-top lighting. It is equipped with refrigerator/freezer, dishwasher, gas stove and oven, countertop electric oven, microwave, coffee maker, toaster, blender, and all cooking utensils, dishes, silverware, glasses and so forth. There is a large, separate breakfast area that seats four.

The laundry room is equipped with separate washing machine and dryer, iron and ironing board, and clotheslines.

The apartment includes Broadband Internet and WiFi (wireless) service, cable TV service, two TVs (a 20" Sharp LCD in the library and 27" Samsung flat-screen in the larger bedroom suite), multi-zone DVD, Bose radio and CD player, two other portable radios, and multiple telephones.

Every room has individually controlled air conditioning. There is in-floor radiant heating with individually controlled zones in the front and rear areas of the apartment.

This wonderful apartment is ideal for both short stays and long-term living.
