Rio de Janeiro, Brazil – A magnificent beachfront Ipanema apartment in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, is now being exclusively marketed by Christie’s International Real Estate, the world’s leading luxury real estate network. Offered at USD $7,100,000 by exclusive affiliate Judice & Araujo, the property is located in a classic five story, Ipanema-style beachfront building with unobstructed views of the ocean, a palm tree-lined avenue, and islands off its shores.

The building plan features one luxury, single-owner apartment per floor with a total living area of 4,100 square feet. The apartment includes an expansive 1,020 square foot open-plan living room with oversize, acoustical glass windows, built-in media center, and pin-spot lighting perfect for displaying fine art.

The private residence has three bedrooms with large windows including one double-size master bedroom and two large guest rooms, two large bathrooms with one en suite and wide, convenient bedroom area hallways. The large kitchen with marble pantry areas and windows provide ample fresh air to both the kitchen and service areas. Staff quarters include two maid’s rooms, a separate full bathroom and are adjacent to the service area, service elevator and rear staircase.

The full service building is gated and has an oversize, modern reception area adjoining a large garden of contemporary design.
