This 65 sqm one-bedroom has a genuine floor-to-ceiling glass balcony running the width of the living room, enclosed rather than open-air, doubling as a sunroom with a bistro table and chairs and a washing machine tucked to one side. The view is a real payoff: an open panorama over the surrounding towers from height. The kitchen has subway tile and black cabinetry, and the entry has a striking oval mirror niche. Furnishing throughout is minimal and consistent: a cream sofa, abstract art in matching frames, a small desk nook. Rent runs high for West Nanjing Road, and the enclosed balcony view is the clearest reason: it’s a genuinely distinctive amenity for a one-bedroom at this size.

A 5-minute walk to Shanghai Natural History Museum metro station, close to HKRI Taikoo Hui and Jing’an Sculpture Park, in Jing’an.
