This place we had for rent 2 years ago (sure some of our long time readers remember.
Then, and now, I think the most unique feature is the huge terrace!
It’s stunning, 100 square meters large, over looking Xujiahui’s most beautiful complex garden, a football field (the skill is rather below average, but it’s still good for some amusement, plus there is more passion in amateurs games), and the magnificent Xujiahui Cathedral built a hundred years ago.

The Apartment itself is a classic upper eastside. 
Spacious and bright living room, with floor to ceiling windows overlooking the wonderful garden area. An entrance, and a roomy kitchen with plenty of custom storage, built in oven and microwave and a laundry room.
Elegant Bathrooms, Central Airconditionings and double glazed windows.

The Master Bedroom is bright and big, with a large closet and en-suite bathroom that is elegant and comes with tub and walk-in shower.
The  Guestrooms are spacious as well, and also have nice garden views.

The Upper Eastside is right across the Grand Gateway Office and Mall in the heart of Xujiahui. 
5 minutes walk to hundreds (literally, hundreds) of restaurants, cafe’s, shops and an international supermarket.
The Metro is also nearby, about  5 minutes walking too. 
There is a convinience store and laundry shop in the compound.
Upper Eastside as a complex is also popular among Hongkongnese and Taiwanese because of it’s considered to have very good Fengshui. (after all it’s built by a hongkong developer)
The Condominium features a large clubhouse, with fitness center, sauna, steam room, swimming pool (indoor and outdoor), Squash, Tennis Courts and many more.
Management by Colliers International.
