rue Bottero, Nice - Wonderful all year round
An appealing
two bedroomed apartment in a beautiful bourgeois building to accommodate
2, 3, 4 or 5 people.
This town apartment is situated in a quiet
street, just 3 blocks (about 300 metres) from the Promenade des Anglais
and the beaches, and just 500 metres from the famous Hotel Negresco
and the Palais Masséna. La Cité de la Buffa, the biggest covered
market in the centre of Nice is only 50 metres away. It has over
40 stalls selling top quality fresh produce and a wide range of local
specialties. All the attractions of Nice are within walking distance,
with convenient bus routes running past the end of the street – a
car is definitely not needed.
You enter the building through tall double
wrought iron doors into a marbled floor hall and take the lift to
the fourth floor. The apartment is spacious and bright with high
ceilings. All the rooms still retain the original marble fire places,
and two have the original wooden parquet flooring. It has been professionally
restored throughout to the highest standard. All the furniture and
furnishings, and the kitchen appliances are brand new. There is an
entry phone system.
From the large entrance hall, the first
door leads to Bedroom One. It has full length windows with a marble
balconette giving views over well maintained gardens. It has wooden
parquet flooring and an original marble fireplace. There are twin
beds, which can be put together to make a superking-sized bed, or
separated make make 2 single beds. There is a tall wardrobe and a
chest of drawers.
Further along the entrance hall is the
lounge with an original marble fireplace, wooden parquet flooring
and a splendid antique chandelier. It has tall windows giving the
same views as Bedroom One. There is a beautiful Moroccan hand-carved
sofa which seats two, 2 leather easychairs, and dining table and chairs.
There is a CD/cassette player/radio, and a television, should you
have time to watch it. There is a DVD player, should you wish to bring
your favourite movies with you.
The apartment is what the French call
‘traversant’ (running from the front of the building through to the
back) so you have through air – very important on hot days and nights.
Bedroom Two, accessed from the other side
of the hallway and further along, faces east and has tall windows
overlooking inner gardens. It has oak flooring and an original marble
fireplace. There is a double bed and a large wardrobe with shelving.
There is a single fold-up bed with a proper mattress,
which is normally stored out of the way in a cupboard, thus accommodating
a fifth person. This can be utilised in the lounge, therefore creating
3 separate sleeping areas if required.
The kitchen is equipped with fridge/freezer,
cooker, microwave, cafetière, electric kettle and toaster.
An iron and ironing board is provided.
The bathroom has a window and is well
fitted with bath/shower facility and wash hand basin. There is a washing
machine, and a hairdryer is provided. The separate toilet has a window
and a wash hand basin.
There
is central heating, if you should ever need it. The apartment is
extremely well-furnished and equipped to the same very high standard
as our other apartments. It is truly a home-from-home.
