IF there is a Knightsbridge of Bahrain it is Seef. Glittering shopping malls, prestigious office-filled towers and luxurious residential blocks make up some of the kingdom's most impressive real estate.
At night the area glows like a lit-up circuit-board, with a mesh of new roads and buildings sparkling in clean horizontals and verticals and sweeping curves.
An abundance of shopping outlets and restaurants make Seef one of the busiest and most cosmopolitan areas of Bahrain.
While Seef's skyline may not yet rival Manhattan's it is certainly on its way.
And this property is undoubtedly going to aid Bahrain's bid to have one of the most notable cityscapes in the region.
In an area that effortlessly combines business and pleasure, this tower is a smart idea that incorporates both residential and commercial spaces - one side of the tower will be residential and the other will be for offices.
Named Dream Tower, the tower is another development in top developer Orchid's impressive portfolio.
Located behind the Shaikh Khalifa bin Salman Highway, in between Dana Mall and the Bahrain International Exhibition Centre the location is central and convenient.
There will be separate elegant lobbies for the office tower and the residence tower.
The tower's cross-section is in the shape of two quarter circles twisted outwards and touching from their narrowest points, with the office tower commanding one quarter and the residence the other.
Glass and exposed concrete beams combine to form a chic, modern and crisp-edged building.
Just as impressive as the tower's architecture are its amenities, which leave little need for residents to have to venture out. There will be a fully equipped gymnasium, sauna and steam room as well as a children's play area.
There will also be an impressive roof-top swimming pool that commands incredible views of the surrounding buildings, over to the sea.
One unusual benefit of this tower is that each condominium enjoys its own floor, allowing for plenty of privacy. The large balcony that comes with each apartment can not be overlooked by its neighbours.
Each apartment's space is maximised to its fullest potential. The front door opens onto a hall that leads into an open-plan sitting room and dining room, with doors that lead to a large balcony that runs the full length of the room. It is a great space for entertaining with seamless interaction between the two living areas.
There is a generously proportioned kitchen appointed with well designed cabinetry and white goods.
Doors on either side of the living area open on to luxurious double bedrooms that have built-in closets and en-suite large bathrooms.
In total each flat is a large 1561 sq ft.
In such a busy area, another key bonus is the fact that all apartments come with assigned covered parking.
The apartments make ideal pied-a-terres in the heart of one of Bahrain's choicest locations.
This is an interesting, stylish and unique development, enjoying an excellent location and unique levels of privacy - there are few more convenient places to call home than this.
