This bright and modern 38 m2 apartment, located in the basement of a well-maintained 1960s Scandinavian-style row house, offers a perfect blend of comfort, privacy, and convenience—ideal for professionals seeking a quiet and well-connected home base in Reykjavík. Although it's located in a basement, the space feels bright and welcoming, thanks to large windows on both sides that allow plenty of natural light. The apartment has its own private entrance and features a spacious main room that serves as both a living and sleeping area. It includes a queen-size bed, a comfortable sofa that converts into another queen-size bed, a Smart TV, wardrobe, and ample storage. A baby cot can also be provided upon request, making it a practical option for small families. The kitchen is separate and fully equipped with quality appliances: dishwasher, washing machine, induction hob, oven, microwave, fridge/freezer, toaster, and kitchenware. The dining table also functions well as a workspace for remote professionals, and a small desk can be provided upon request. The modern bathroom features a walk-in shower, towel radiator, and high-quality ventilation with an automatic fan to keep the space fresh and comfortable. Located in the green and peaceful Laugardalur neighborhood, the apartment is just steps from shops, cafés, a bakery, butcher, gym, and Reykjavík’s most popular geothermal swimming pool. It's a 5-minute walk to the Borgartún business district, and well connected to public transport—with a 10-minute bus ride or 25-minute walk to the city center. This apartment offers the privacy of a standalone unit, the practicality of a fully furnished space, and the comfort of a home—all in a vibrant and well-serviced area...
