6 Bedroom Apartment in The Residences at No 35, Lagos

Some homes just have a way of making you slow down a little. When I first visited The Residences at No 35 in Ikoyi Lagos it was one of those rare times. I actually caught myself taking a bigger breath as soon as I walked inside. There is something about the tall glass and soft grey exterior that manages to feel both modern yet calm. You can tell how thoughtfully the place has been maintained even before you step through the main doors. Nothing flashy or loud here just a careful attention to detail that feels reassuring.

Walking through the lobby you will notice the hush. I found it pretty striking actually. The building rises up seven storeys so you get these lovely skyline views over Ikoyi but you are not towering right over the neighborhood. It is not the sort of apartment building where you feel lost in a crowd either. Only two special five bedroom penthouses and then a handful of the six bedroom apartments which are duplexes here. Each one really does give you that sense of space arms out wide and all and you are not going to bump into anything or anyone. It is a simple sort of luxury where comfort comes first.

Inside these six bedroom apartments the open layout just works. Living area slipping into the dining and then straight into the kitchen. And these kitchens are actually places you can see yourself cooking for real not just heating takeout. I remember standing by the window for a bit. It is one of those spots where you could watch life moving outside in Ikoyi. If you are up early enough you might catch the city starting its day kids heading to school and the hum of Lagos coming alive. The bedrooms are soft and quiet. It is honestly the sort of quiet that comes from thick carpets and good design. Some nights you could forget where your phone even is and just enjoy the stillness instead.

You will also notice how the flooring is not one note. Sometimes it is tile sometimes wood and it keeps things warm but never too cold or glossy. Each little zone of the apartment feels thought out. There are places to sit back maybe a lounge tucked into a quiet corner and even a games room which is not something you find in just any apartment in Lagos. It is the sort of home where getting everyone around the table for dinner feels easy. Guests naturally find their spot by a window or in a quiet nook. The view over Ikoyi seems to change by the hour. I kept coming back to the windows myself especially in late afternoon when the light softens everything and the city looks almost peaceful.

The six bedroom duplexes have a clever twist. Each level mirrors the other so if you ever want more privacy or you have a big family or maybe one day you consider turning it into two separate apartments you could actually do that. Or just enjoy the whole space as one. These sorts of options do not come up often in Ikoyi. It is a bit of a rarity and it adds this practical edge to a really beautiful home.

On the ground floor you get a pool that actually feels private because there is plenty of green not just stone all round. You could swim laps or just read by the pool for a while and still feel tucked away. The gym is right there too no need to fight traffic just to get a workout in. Parking is really sorted with two different areas so you are not driving in circles after a long day.

One thing you will keep noticing is how the wider Ikoyi community feels. There are restaurants you start to know by name and a bit of culture on every block. Coffee shops pastries couples out for a morning walk. It is an area that feels genuinely lived in but cared for at the same time. The Residences at No 35 just has that something. Sometimes a place just fits.
