1 bedroom apartment in Central Park at City Walk, City Walk

Some places just settle you the moment you walk through the door. I felt that stepping into this one bedroom apartment at Fern in Central Park, City Walk. The ceiling is high enough that you notice your voice echoes a little, especially in the entrance lobby. Light just pools in here from those floor to ceiling windows, so even when you close the front door it never feels boxed in. Honestly, you get city views that make you want to just stand on the balcony for a good while with your coffee. I found myself just looking out and noticing how green the outside feels, even with all the city around. There is always something happening below—a jogger out early in the morning or sometimes people walking with their dogs.

So this is an open plan space, and not the kind that sacrifices comfort for looks. The living, dining, and kitchen spaces all flow right into each other. If you actually cook for real, you'll be glad to see how the kitchen is shaped. There is almost always enough counter space and that spot by the window pretty much calls out for a little herb garden or maybe just a place for the blender. The living area just feels easy to settle into, with sunlight slanting in at different hours of the day. Sometimes you almost forget your phone when you're here.

When you're done hosting friends or just want some quiet, you duck down the corridor toward the bedroom. Built in storage is there, not flashy, but useful. It honestly gives you more floor space which just makes everything feel a bit bigger. The bathroom is just off the hall too, neat and private. There is also a utility room which is the kind of thing you don't think about much at first, but really use a lot—extra storage or a proper laundry spot instead of just tucking things in a corner.

One thing that sets Fern apart is actually the outside. City Walk's Central Park is not just a name. People are out all the time. In the evening you'll spot families in the park or someone walking home with groceries from the boutique mall right inside the development. The infinity pool here looks out at the city skyline—it's the sort of place where you could easily lose track of time on a long weekend. I stood near the pool and with the city behind me and the greenery up front, it felt like you didn't have to choose between urban living and breathing space.

Fern's gym is worth a mention. Honestly, it is more than enough for daily workouts. You see regulars there, but it never gets too busy. The whole community has open outdoor spots, so if you're into running or just a slow evening stroll, you fit right in. Central Park at City Walk always has this relaxed energy. The coffee shop is never far for a lazy Saturday and you can usually smell bread baking from the bakery next to it. A couple of minutes and you're at the Roxy Cinema, the Green Planet biodome, or if you're up for something exciting, there's the Coca Cola Arena. Plus, City Walk always feels walkable, with everything kind of tucked in together but never crowded.

You'll notice that the weekends feel like a little holiday here. It is not just an apartment in Dubai, it is a home that feels different depending on the time of day. Even after a few visits, I kept finding new corners where the sun hit just right or hearing sounds from the city that felt more comforting than busy.

The only way to know if it feels right is to come see it for yourself. If you have any questions, or you just want to walk through and get a feel for the place, reach out any time. Here at LuxuryProperty.com, we want your next move to feel as relaxed and comfortable as possible.
