Located only two hundred metres away from the Mediterranea Sea, you certainly get a sense of this proximity to the ocean in this bright and airy apartment. Save for the boldly coloured pieces of artwork dotted about, the decor is dominated by a palette of washed-out neutrals, which are the perfect backdrop for the copious amounts of natural light that streams in through the glass doors in the living space. Slide open these very doors and you'll find a cute balcony at prime people-watching height. When you want to venture outside, you simply have to follow the street down for five minutes on foot to reach Frishman Beach and the same amount of time in the opposite direction gets you to Kikar Dizengoff and its impressive fountain.

Home truths
It’s opposite a school, so it can get a little noisy during the school hours
There’s no lift in the building and you have to climb twenty-two steps to reach the second floor, so it might not be suitable for guests with reduced mobility

About Old North
Spanning from Arzolorov Street to Park Hayarkon, the Old North is a well-kept neighbourhood full of classy sea-facing bistros serving Mediterranean delicacies as well as chic cafés and mainstream shopping streets. Its most famous street is Dizengoff Street. Even though many of the shops are high-end, the restaurants and bars are affordable, and many Tel-Avivians come here to enjoy a drink in some of the stylish cocktail bars that are dotted along the street and its offshoots.
