Immerse yourself in the grandeur of the Versailles complex with this sumptuous ground-floor apartment, where the entrance may lead you to believe that you've stepped into a palace as grand as its namesake. Majestic double doors open to the stately foyer, featuring terrazzo marble, a towering chandelier, and classical statues, all beneath soaring ceilings.

Elegance unfolds throughout the house-sized interior, commencing with a parquetry-floored entry that leads to a handsome home office, a refined formal lounge, and a family and dining room perfect for sophisticated entertaining or quiet evenings. French doors unveil a private alfresco sanctuary with a covered patio and barbecue area, bordered by parterre hedges reminiscent of the manicured gardens of Europe. The gourmet kitchen satisfies the connoisseur with marble benchtops, a vibrant red Lacanche oven/induction cooktop, artistically tiled splashbacks, plus a window framing verdant views.

The private sleeping wing is a serene retreat, featuring two ensuite bedrooms adjoined by a cozy sitting area overlooking an atrium. The wing is completed by a laundry and guest powder room. Added comforts include ducted heating and cooling, video-monitored security, an alarm system, a fireplace, and elegant Plantation shutters. Completing the features are the conveniences of a double remote-controlled garage and extensive workshop/storage
