2 Bedroom Apartment in Seashore, Abu Dhabi Gate City

Some homes just nudge you to breathe a little slower when you step inside. That is the feeling I had walking into this two bedroom apartment right in Tower 1 of Seashore, Abu Dhabi Gate City. There is this soft sort of sunlight that slips onto the kitchen counters in the morning and you start to get it why people always talk about natural light. It is not staged or showroom perfect and honestly that makes it better. You have a real open plan kitchen as you come through the door. It just spills into the dining space so you feel like talking to people when you're cooking. You look over and there's this easy transition to a living room that feels surprisingly homey. I paused for a bit and stood out on the balcony toward the back and it was quiet enough to hear birds sometimes which you do not always get in Abu Dhabi.

The main thing you notice about this apartment is the windows. They do not hold back any of the morning or evening sun. Even just sitting on the sofa you can see hints of the Dubai skyline—on clear days you catch the sun rising over the towers way off in the distance. Kitchen is made for real living too, not just for show, with good quality fittings and enough space for an actual dinner with friends rather than something you have to squeeze into. In the center you find a bright bedroom that works great for guests or maybe an office depending on your life right now. There's a guest bathroom just where you'd want it and a laundry room that is tucked away but still pretty handy.

The master suite is probably the part that holds your attention a little longer. You walk in and the dressing room actually feels useful—enough space to keep things in order without cramming everything into boxes. Bath is laid out simply and the private balcony attached gives you a spot to watch the colors change in the sky before bed. You might just find yourself sitting there more than you expect. The interiors have this calm, pared back look, nothing flashy but it works. You can tell the finishes are solid. It just does not feel like a place that wears out fast.

Living here at Seashore, you're in a sweet spot because the coffee shop is never far and you get to wake up to views of glossy white yachts bobbing in the water or the sparkle of the sea. Now and then you see kids biking along the walkways or someone just reading by the pool. There is this five hundred meter long canal pool and some days you forget you are even in the middle of the city. The fitness center actually gets used by people—no echoey empty space there. Decks outside are landscaped, and you'll find a few neighbors chatting early evenings.

You are close to the yacht marina and there is a floating yacht club nearby. The waterfront promenade is good for lazy walks and if you crave more, the Dubai Mall by the Sea is not too far off. So if you need to grab coffee, a quick lunch, or just people watch, there is always somewhere to go.

The best thing is you are not boxed into some massive tower with no character. Seashore is its own four building community and you can just feel it is a bit more personal. Sometimes you look around and it honestly just feels easy to picture yourself at home here. You almost forget your phone for a while and that is always a good sign.
